The New Testament appeared in 1582 with the annexed title-page: —

The topics treated in the

Tin:

preface are stated at the
commencement to be these ;
"the translation of Holy
Scriptures into the vulgar
tongues, and, namely, into
English : the causes why
this New Testament is
translated according to the
ancient vulgar Latin text :
and the manner of trans-
lating the same." In dis-
cussing these points the
editors enter upon a long
and elaborate argument,

ingenuity. They begin by
carefully guarding against
the idea that the Scriptures
should always be in our
mother tongue, or that
they ought, or were or-
dained by God, to be read
indifferently of all. For
no such cause do the}
translate this sacred book, but upon special consideration of the present
time, slate, and condition of OUT country. They eulogise the wisdom and
moderation of the church respecting vulgar translations, in neither
absolutely forbidding, nor authoritatively commanding them. Then, after
reciting that various Catholic translations had been made in ancient tim 9,
by Chrysostom, George the Patriarch, St. Jerome, Vulpilaa, James Lrch-
bishop of Genoa, and others— that, by the Constitution of Archbishop
Arundel, all English translations were forbidden which were not allowed
by the diocesan- — -and that, since Luther's time, divers learned Catholics had
published the Bible, in order to abolish a number of false and impious
translations put forth by sundry sects they solemnly introduce the order
and determination of the Church respecting the reading of the translations

allowed. '* Whereypon, the order which many a wise man wished for
before, was taken by the Deputies of the late famous Councel of Trent in
this behalfe, and confirmed by Bupreme authoritie, that the holy Scrip-

tures, though truely and Catholikely translated into vulgar tonges, )^et
may not be indifferetly readde of all men, nor of any other then such
as haue express licence therevnto of their lawful Ordinaries, with good
testimonie from their Curates or Confessors, that they be humble, discrete
and deuout persons, and like to take much good, and no harme thereby.
Which prescript, though in these daies of ours it can not be so precisely
obserued, as in other times & places, where there is more due respecte of
the Churches authoritie, rule, and discipline : yet we trust all wise and
godly persons will vse the matter in the meane while, with such mode-
ration, meekenes, and subiection of hart, as the handling of so sacred a
booke, the sincere senses of Gods truth therein, & the holy Canons,
Councels, reason, and religion do require." They warmly deny that our
forefathers " suffered euery schole-maister, scholer, or Grammarian that
had a little Greeke or Latin straight to take in hand the holy Testament:
or that the translated Bibles into the vulgar tonges, were in the handes
of euery husbandman, artificer, prentice, boies, girles, mistresse, maide,
man : that they were sung, plaied, alleaged, of euery tinker, tauerner,
rimer, minstrel : that they were for table talke, for alebenches, for boates
and barges, and for euery prophane person and companie. No, in those
better times men were neither so ill, nor so curious of them selues, so to
abuse the blessed booke of Christ : neither was there any such easy meanes
before printing was inuented, to disperse the copies into the hands of euery
man, as now there is." The Scriptures, they add, were then in
monasteries, colleges, churches; in bishops', priests', and some other
devout principal laymen's houses and hands — and curiously remark that,
"the poore ploughman could then, in labouring the ground, sing the
hymn- and psalms, either in knowen or vnknowen languages, as they
heard them in the holy church, though they could neither reade nor
know tli* . meaning, and mysteries of the same." Under cover of the

authority of Augustine and Chrysostom, they deprecate, as an abuse,
the practice of all indifferently reading, expounding, and talking of the
ipture; and urge, thai some are to learn, and some to teach; that the
people went not up to talk with God in the mountain, but .Moses, Aaron,
and Eleazer. They repudiate the idea that it is from envy that the priests
keep the holy book from the people, and ascribe the wholesome restriction
to the wisdom and mercy ><\ the < Ihurch. " She would haue the vnworthy
repelled, the curious repressed, the Bimple measured, the learned humbled,
and all Boii i th< in orabsteine from them, as is most conuenient

of his mystical bodie: and for the rest, she committeth it to the Pastor
of every prouince and people, according to the difference of time, place,
and persons, how and in what sort the reading oi the Scripture- is more
or lesse to be procured or permitted." They explain away the sanction
that Chrysostom gives to the popular reading of the Bible; allege that
the people were fonder of the mysteries than of the morals of Christianity;
and remark, that every heretic quotes Scripture for his heresy. They
then charge the Protestants with falsely translating the word of God, and
set forth, in contrast, their own religious care and sincerity. The reason
for introducing the annotations follows; and, in a few lines, the great
principle of their Church is developed. "We haue also set forth reason-
able large Annotations, thereby to shew the studious reader inmost
places perteining to the controversies of this time, both the heretical
corruptions and false deductions, & also the Apostolike tradition, the
expositions of the holy fathers, the decrees of the Catholike Church and
most ancient Coucels: which meanes whosoeuer trustetb not, for the sense
of holy Scriptures, but had rather folow his priuate iudgemet or the
arrogat spirit of these Sectaries, he shal worthily through his owne
wilfulnes be decerned, beseeching all men tolookewith diligence, Binceritie,
and indillerencie, into the case that concerneth no lesse then eueiy OD -
eternal saluation or damnation."

They afterwards exhibit in array the reasons for their preferring the
Vulgate text. It is most ancient; was corrected by Jerome; commended
by Augustine; used by the Fathers; defined as exclusively authentic by
the Council of Trent; i> most grave; least partial; precise in following
the Creek; preferred by Beza;1 superior to all the rest, wherein there is
much diversity and dissension; and not only better than all other Latin
translations, but than the vulgar Creek text itself, in those places win
they disagree. They then give two or three instances in which the
Fathers thought that the true reading of the pas was to be found in
the Latin text, and that the Greek was upted; and, as a still more
decisive proof of the superiority of the Latin vulgate, they state the fact,

that" the Calvinists" had often preferred it to the Greek.

Advancing to critical grounds, the\ argue that the Latin commonly
agrees with the Greek text; that if it differs from the usual readings of

the Greek text, it coincides with some copy specified in the margin, of
which examples may be seen in Stephens's Greek Testament ; that the
adversaries admit some of these marginal readings to be preferable ; that
when Greek copies fail, quotations in the Greek Fathers may be found
consonant with the Vulgate; that in default of authority there, recourse
may be had to conjectural emendation, to bring the Greek into harmony
with the Latin ; that if neither Greek Fathers nor conjectures help us,
the Latin Fathers, with great consent, will easily justify the old Vulgar
translation; and, lastly, if some Latin Fathers of ancient time read
otherwise, the cause is to be found in the great diversity and multitude
of Latin copies which then existed. On these very convenient principles
of criticism they prove, to their own satisfaction, that the old Vulgar
translation is as good, and even better, than the Greek text itself.

They further maintain that the Latin does not make more for them
than the Greek, but in some instances assists their cause even less; and
candour must admit, that in the examples they cite this is the fact.

The manner of translating is then defended; and they attempt a
vindication of certain untranslated terms, such as " parasceue," " pasche,"
" azymes," " neophyte." In hard places they presume not " to mollify
the speech, but keep to it word for word ;" as, " The spirituals of wicked-

-s in the celestial," Eph. vi. 12, and, "What tome and thee, woman?"
John ii. 11. They sometimes add the Greek, and sometimes the Latin,
in the margin. They thus conclude their production : — ■" Thus we haue
endeauoured by al meanes to satisfie the indifferent reader, and to helpe
his vnderetancung euery way, both in the text, and by Annotations:
and withal to deale most sincerely before God and man, in translating
and expounding the most sacred text of the holy Testament. Fare

The ootes introduced in the margin throughout the volume are
chiefly controversial, and an- intended t<> guard tie' reader against the

adoption of any view of a pa inconsistent with the authoritative

".ill. PB EFA( l'-

teaching of the church. In fact, the translators sent forth tin- Scriptures
as explained by tradition, treating them as dubious oracles, whose
utterances were not to be properly understood without the aid of an
interpreting priesthood.

That the Rhemish translators were men of learning there can be no
question. Indeed, they might be said to be more than qualified for their
task, for to translate correctly from the Vulgate required do very great
erudition. They scrupulously adhered to the principles laid down in
their preface; and often, at the expense of English idiom and of common
sense, refused to "mollify" the Latin, and strictly followed it word for
word. The following version affords an instance; "Do I minde accord-
ing to the flesh that there be with me, It is and It is not? But God is
faithful, because our preaching which was to you there i> not in it, It
and It is not. Tor the Sonne of God Jesus Christ, who by us was
preached among yon, by me and Syluanus and Timothee, was not, /'
and It is not, but, It is, was in him for al the promises of God that are,
in him It is, therefore also by him, Amen to God, vnto our glorie." —
(2 Cor. i. 17—20.)

It would be unfair to charge the Rhemish translators with a dis-
honest perversion of Scripture; it is sufficient condemnation, and one
which they deserve — indeed, one which, in their preface, ti
almost to court — to affirm, that they produced a version in many parts
quite unintelligible — "a, translation,'' to use the quaint phrase of Fuller,
"needing to be translated.'' The words "pasche," "azymes," "neophyte,"
&c, remind us of Gardiner's "majestic words," and the whole work was
executed in such a manner as would have met his view I i leave them

untranslated, and then give the explanation of them in the annotation-,
was to veil the Scriptures, that the Church might come forward and
disclose her mysteries, — to silence the voice of inspiration that she might
speak herself. In short, the motto of the RhemistS W88 not, "Search the
Scriptures,'' but. "Hear the Church ," and they had honesty enough to avow
it. The Chief importance and interest connected with this version, ai\-
from the veneration with which it is regarded by our Roman Catholic
countrymen; ami it may be remarked that, disguised as are many of the
renderings, and notwithstanding the formidable array of annotation-.

1 1 ii a work dC such length, it would be strange superior t<> any other that has been ever given.

which stand like sentinels to defend the Church against attacks from
without, and to keep the faithful within, there remain, after all, what is
quite sufficient to show the inconsistency of the Papal system with the
word of God, and to furnish the thoughtful reader with weapons by
which to fight his way out of the strongholds of error.

Unfortunately for the boasted and almost immaculate purity of the Latin
text, so strenuously maintained by the Rhemish translators, within eight
years after they had completed their labours, a new edition of the
Vulgate appeared, under the pontifical sanction of Sixtus V., who, on
account of the many errors in the existing copies, found such an under-
taking to be necessary. The work thus ushered into the world by such
high and infallible authority, was found by the next Pope to be
exceedingly incorrect ; and another edition, differing, more than an)' other,
from the Sixtine, was published under the auspices of Clement VIII. , in
L592. Two Latin texts, varying in numerous particulars, were thus
placed before the Church by two pontiffs of equal authority; an awkward
circumstance for the advocates of the Rhemish version and papal infalli-
bility, which has not failed to attract the notice, and employ the exulting
pens, of Protestants, especially of our learned countryman, Dr. Thomas
James.'

In the same year that the Rhemish translation was published, Gregory

Martin, who had the chief hand in its preparation, published his

•• Discovery of the Manifold Corruptions of the Holie Scriptures by the

Heretikea of oar daies," evidently intended as a sort of appendix to the

version. The Protestants felt that these works required to be noticed ;

and it ha- been -aid, that Queen Elizabeth sent to Beza, to request him

to undertake an answer to the objectionable matter contained in the

Rhemish translation, and that he modestly excused himself, replying that

she had one in her own kingdom far abler than himself to undertake

such a ta.-k, namely, Mr. Thomas ( 'art wright. This divine, whose

reputation for learning Btood vevy high, was a Puritan, and an object of

great dislike to Archbishop Whitgift. Whether there be truth or not in

tip menl that Elizabeth applied to Beza, and that Beza referred her

Majesty t<» Cartwright as a fitting champion in the Protestant cause, it is

tain that Cartwright was excited to undertake the work by the

icitation of Sir Francis Walsingham, and by a letter from several

learned men of the University of Cambridge. Cartwright began, and

would have speedily finished his confutation, but he was interdicted by
Whitgift. ' Dr. William Fulke, Master of Pembroke Hall, Cambridge,
one of those who had signed the letter to Gartwright, finding, perhaps,
that his learned contemporary Avas not likely to complete his labours, or,
thinking that answers from different pens might not be undesirable,
published, in 1583, "A Defence of the Sincere and True Translation of
the Holy Scriptures into the English Tongue against the manifold cavils,
frivolous quarrels, and impudent slanders, of Gregorie Martin." Six
years afterwards he republished the Khemish translation, with the
Pushops' version printed in parallel columns, to which he added " A
Confutation of all such Arguments, Glosses, and Annotations, as contain
manifest Impiety or Heresy, Treason and Slander against the Catholic
Church of God, and the true Teachers thereof; or the Translations used
in the Church of England." Though the learned Cartwright v
interrupted at the beginning of his work, lie afterwards pursued it :
and it was published after his death by his friends, in 1018 ; "A book,"
says Fuller, " which, notwithstanding some defects, is so complete, that
the Rhemish durst never return the least answer theret and in

another place, he says of it, " No English champion in that age did
with more valour or success charge and rout the Rhemish enemy in
matters of doctrine."

child and his mother by night, and retired
into Egypt: and he was there until the
death of Herod : ;5 that it might be fulfilled
which was spoken of our Lord by the Pro-
phet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called
my son.

16Then Herod perceiving that he was
deluded by the Sages, was exceeding angry:
and sending, murdered all the men children
that were in Bethlehem, and in all the
borders thereof, from two years old and
under, according to the time which lie had
diligently sought out of the Sages. "Then
was fulfilled that which was spoken by
Jeremy the prophet saying, 18.i voice in
Rama was heard, crying out and much
wailing : Rachel bewailing her children,
and would not be comforted, because they
are not.

19 But when Herod was dead, behold an
Angel of our Lord appeared in sleep to
Joseph in Egypt, "Baying, Arise, and take
the child and his mother, and go into the
land of Israel; for they are dead that,
sought the life of the child. -''"Who arose,
and took the child and his mother, and came
into the land of Israel. -But hearing that
Archelaus reigned in Jewry for Herod his
father, he feared to go thither: and heinsr
warned in sleep retired into the quarters
of Galilee. fflAnd coming he dwelt in a
city called Nazareth: that it might be
fulfilled which was said by the Prophets :
That he shall be called a Nazarite.

And in those days cometh John the
Baptist preaching in the desert of Jewry,
-and saying, Do penance : for the Kingdom
of heaven is at hand. :i For this is he that
was spoken of by Ksay the Prophet, saying,
A voice of one crying in the desert, "Prepare
ye the way of our Lord, make straight his
paths. ■'And the said John had his gar-
ment of camels' hair, and a girdle of a skin
about his loins: and his meat was locusts
and wild honey.

' Then went forth to' him Jerusalem and
all Jewry, and all the countrj about Jordan :
''and were baptized of him in Jordan, con-
g their .-ins. 7 And seeing man] oi the
Pharisees and Sadduoees coming to his
baptism, he said to them,

per*' brood, who hath shewed ron to
om the wrath to come ? 'Yield there-
fore fruit worthy of penance. '' And delight

vobis: Diligite inimicos vestros, benefacite his, qui

45 tibus vos: ut sitis filii patris vestri, qui in coelis est:
qui solem suum oriri facit super bonos et malos: et

46 pluit super justos et injustos. Si enim diligitis eos,
qui vos diligunt, quam mercedem habebitis? nonne et

47 publicani hoc faciunt? Et si salutaveritis fratres ves-

48 hoc faciunt? Estote ergo vos perfecti, sicut et pater

43 You have heard that it was said, Thou
shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine
enemy. 41 But 1 say to you, Love your ene-
mies, do good to them that hate you: and
pray for them that persecute and abuse you :
*' that you may be the children of your
father which is in heaven, who maketh his
sun to rise upon good and bad, and raineth
upon just and unjust. ^For if you love
them that love you, what reward shall you
have? do not also the Publicans this?
47 And if you salute your brethren only,
what do you more? do not also the heathen
this? ^ Be you perfect therefore, as also
your heavenly father is perfect.

Take good heed that you do not your
justice before men, to be seen of them :
otherwise reward you shall not have with
your father which is in heaven.

-Therefore when thou doest an alms-deed,
sound not a trumpet before thee, as the
hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the
streets, that they may be honoured of men :
Amen I say to you, they have received their
reward. 3 But when thou doest an alms-
deed, let not thy left hand know what thy
right hand doeth : ■'that thy alms-deed may
be in secret, and thy father which seeth in
secret, will repay thee.

•'And when ye pray, you shall not be as
the hypocrites, that love to stand and pray
in the synagogues and corners of the streets,
that they may be seen of men i Amen I say
to you, they have received their reward.
'■ Bui thou when thou shall pray, enter into
th\ chamber, and having Bhut the door, pray
to thy father in secret : and thy father which
seeth in secret, will repay thee, ' And when
*oa are praying, speak not much, as the
heathen. For they think that in their
much-speaking they may he heard. v lie
lot yon therefore like to them, for >nur
father knoweth what is needful tor you,
before you a?k him.

19 Heap not up to yourselves treasures on
the earth: where the rual and moth do
corrupt, and where thieves din through and

Bteal. '■" But heap up to yourserfes trea-
sures in heaven: where licit her the ru~t Dor
moth doth corrupt, and when' thiei

not din through nor steal. '-' For where thy
treasure is, there is thy heart also. --'The
candle of thy body is thine eve. If thine
eye he simple, thy whole body .-hall he light-
some. J lint it thine eve he naught: thy
whole body shall be darksome. If then the
light that is in thee, he darkness : the dark-

-' No man can serve two masters. For
either he will hate the one, and love the
other: or he will sustain the one, and con-
temn the other, Sou cannot serve Clod
and Mammon.

"Therefore T say to you. Be not careful
for your life what jrou shall eat. neither for

your body what raiment you shall put on.
Is not the life more than tin' meat : and the
body more than the raiment- * Behold
the fowls of the air, that they sow not.

Matthew IX. 35— X. 20.

35 And Jesus went about all the cities, and
towns, teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the Gospel of the kingdom, and
curing every disease, and every infirmity.
38 And seeing the multitudes, he pitied them:
because they were vexed, and lay like sheep
that have not a shepherd. :^Then he saith
to his Disciples, The harvest surely is great,
but the workmen are few. -^ Pray therefore
the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth
workmen into his harvest.

And having called hi9 twelve Disciples
together, he gave them power over unclean
spirits, that they should cast them out, ami
should cure all manner of disease, and all
manner of infirmity.

; And the names of the twelve Apostles be
these : the first, Simon who i9 called Peter,
and Andrew his brother, 3 James of Zebedee,
and John his brother, Philip and Barth-
lemew, Thomas and Matthew the publican,
and James of Alphseua, and Thaddaeus, ''Si-
mon Cananaeus, and Judas Iscariote, who also
betrayed him.

5 These twelve did Jesus send : command-
ing them, saying, Into the way of the Gen-
tiles go ye not, and into the cities of tl e
Samaritans enter ye not : 6but go rather to
the sheen that are perished of the house of
Israel. 7 And going preach, saying, That
the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Cure
the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers,
cast out devils: gratis you have received,
gratis give ye. 9 Do not possess gold, nor
silver, nor money in your purses: 10not a
scrip for the way, neither two coats, nei-
ther shoes, neither rod : for the workman is
worthy of his meat. u And into whatsoever
city or town you shall enter, inquire who
in it is worthy: and there tarry till you go
forth. 12 And when ye enter into the house,
salute it, saying, Peace be to this house,
L)And if so be that house be worthy, your
peace shall come upon it : but if it he not
worthy, your peace shall return to you.

2 Joannes autem cum audisset in vinculis opera Christi,

3 mittens duos de discipulis suis, ait illi : Tu es, qui ven-

4 turus es, an alium expectamus ? Et respondens Jesus ait
illis : Euntes renunciate Joanni qua? audistis, et vidistis.

5 Caeci vident, elaudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, soldi
audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur :

6 et beatus est, qui non fuerit scandalizatus in me.

7 Illis autem abeuntibus, coepit Jesus dicere ad turbas
de Joanne: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundi-

8 nem vento agitatam? Sed quid existis videre? homi-
nem mollibus vestitum? Ecce qui mollibus vestiuntur,

9 in domibus regum sunt. Sed quid existis videre ? pro-

Matthew XI. 2 — 25.

2 And when John had heard in prison the
works of Christ : sending tvro of his disciples,
he said to him, 3Art thou lie that art to
come, or look we for another? 4 And Jesii9
making answer said to them, Go and report
to John what you hare heard and seen.

5 The hlind see, the lame walk, the lepers are
made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise
again, to the poor the Gospel is preached :

6 and blessed is he that shall not be scandal-
ized in me.

7 And when they went their way, Jesus be-
gan to say to the multitudes of John, What
went you out into the desert to see? a reed
shaken with the wind? s But what went
you out to see? a man clothed in soft gar-
ments? Behold they that are clothed in soft
garments, are in Kings' houses. 9 But what
went you out to see? a Prophet? yea I tell
you and more than a Prophet. 10 For this is
he of whom it is written, Behold I send mine
angel before thy face, which shall prepare
thy way before thee.

11 Amen I say to you, there hath not risen
among the born of women a greater than
John the Baptist: yet he that is the leaser
in the kingdom of heaven, is greater than he.
12 And from the days of John the Baptist
until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth
violence, and the violent hear it away. 1:i For
all the Prophets and the Law prophesied
unto John : 14 and if you will receive it, he is
Elias that is for to come. 15 He that hath
ears to hear, let him hear.

16 And whereunto shall T esteem this gene-
ration to be like? It is like to children sit-
ting in the market-place: V which crying to
their companions, say, Wo have piped to you,
and you have not danced : we have lamented,
and yon have not mourned. ls For John
came neither eating nor drinking: and they
say, Ho hath a devil. "The Son of man
came eating and drinking, and they say,
Behold a man that is a glutton and a
wine-drinker, a friend of publicans and
sinners. And wisdom is justified of her
children.

At that time Jesus went through the corn
on the Sabbath: and his Disciples being
hungry, began to pluck the ears, and to eat.
2 And the Pharisees seeing them, said to him,
Lo, thy Disciples do that which is not lawful
for them to do on the Sabbath-days. 3 But
he said to them, Have you not read what
David did when he was an hungred, and
they that were with him: 4how lie entered
into the house of God, and did cat the loaves
of proposition, which it was not lawful for
him to eat, nor for them that were with
him, but for priests only? '° Or have ye
not read in the Law. that on Sabbath-days
the priests in the Temple do break the
Sabbath, and are without blame? "but I tell
von that there is here a greater than the
Temple. ' And if you did know what it is
/ will mercy, and nut sacrifice : you would
never have condemned the innocents. N For
the Son of man is lord of the Sabbath also.

9 And when he had passed from thence, he
came into their synagogue. u'And behold
there was a man which had a withered hand ;
and they asked him, Baying, Whether is it
lawful to cure on the Sabbaths? that they
might accuse him. " But he said to them.
What man shall there be of you, that shall
have one sheep : and if the same fall into a
ditch on the Sabbaths, will he not take hold
and lift it up? '-How much better is a
man more than a sheep? therefore it is law-
ful on the Sabbaths to do a good deed.
,:i Then he saith to the man, Stretch forth
thy hand : and he stretched it forth, and it
was restored to health even as the other.

"And the Pharisees going forth, made' a
consultation against him, how they might
destroy him. ■ But Jesus knowing it, re-
tired from thence: and many followed him,
and he cured them all. '' Anil he charged
them that they should not disclose bun.

25 daemoniorum. Jesus autem sciens cogitationes eorum,
dixit eis:

Omne regnum divisum contra se, desolabitur: et
omnis civitas vel domus divisa contra se, non stabit.

26 Et si Satanas Satanam ejicit, adversus se divisus est:

27 quomodo ergo stabit regnum ejus? et si ego in Beel-

the multitudes were amazed, and said, Whe-

Pharisees hearing it, said, This fellow caeteth
not out devils hut in Beelzebub the Prince
of the devils. •And Jesus knowing their
cogitations, said to them :

Every kingdom divided against itself shall
be made desolate: and every city or house
divided against itself, shall not stand. aAnd
if Satan cast out Satan, lie is divided against
himself: how then shall his kingdom stand ?
^And if I in Beelzebub cast out devils:
your children in whom do they cast out?
Therefore they shall be your judges. a But
if I in the Spirit of God do cast out devils,
then is the kingdom of God come upon you.
i3Or how can a man enter into the house of
the strong, and rifle his vessel, unless he lirst
bind the strong? and then he will rille his
house. 3° He that is not with me, is against
me: and he that gatliereth not with me,
scattereth. 31 Therefore I say to you. Every
sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men,
but the blasphemy of the Spirit shall not be
forgiven. 3-'And whosoever shall speak a
word against t lie Son of man, it shall be for-
given him : but he that shall speak against
the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him,
neither in this world, nor in the world to
come. 33 Either make the tree good, and his
fruit good : or make the tree evil, and his
fruit evil ; for of the fruit the tree is known.
31 You vipers' broods, how can you speak
good things, whereas you are evil ? for of the
abundance of the heart the mouth Bpeaketh.

35 A good man out of a good treasure bring-
eth forth good things: and an evil man out
of an evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

36 But I say unto you, that every idle word
that men shall speak, they shall render an

nt for it in the day of judgment. ^For
of thy words thou shalt be justified, and of
thy words thou shalt be condemned.

the kingdom and understandeth not, there
comet h the wicked one, and cateheth away
that which was sown in his heart : this is lie
thiir wns sown by the way side. -'"And he
that was sown upon rocky places: this is he
that heareth the word, and incontinent re-
ceiveth it with joy, Byet hath he not root in
himself, but is for a time: and when there
falleth tribulation and persecution for the
word, he is by and by scandalized. -"And
he that was sown among thorns, this is he
that heareth the word, and the carefulness of
this world anil the deceit fulness of riches
choketb up the word, and he hccoineth fruit-
less. -'But he that was sown upon good
ground: this is he that heareth the word, and
understandeth, and bringeth fruit, and yield-
eth some an hundredfold, and another three-
score, and another thirty.

24 Another parable he proposed to them,
saying, The kingdom of heaven is resembled
to a man that Bowed good seed in his held.
35 But when men were asleep, his enemy
came and oversowed cockle among the wheat,
and went his way. -'And when the blade
was shot up, and had brought forth fruit,
then appeared also the cockle. -'"And the
servants of t lie good man of the house coming,
said to him, Sir. didst thou not sou good Beed
in thy field? Whence then hath it cockle?
88 And he said to them, The enemy man hath
done this. And the servants saiil to him,
Wilt thou we go and gather it up? "And lie
said, No: lest perhaps gathering up the
cockle, you may root up the wheat also to-
gether with it. "Suffer both to grow until
the harvest, and in the time of harvest 1 will
say to the reaper?, Gather up lirst the cockle,
and bind it into bundles to burn, but the
wheat gather ye into my barn.

:1 Another parable he proposed unto them,
Baying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a
mustard Beed, which a man look and sowed

iii las field. "Which is the least surely of
nil seeds: but when it i> grown, it is greater
than all herbs, and is made a tree, BO that I be

did hide it, and for joy thereof goeth, and
selleth all that he hath, and huyeth that field.
''Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a
merchant man, seeking good pearls. ^And
having found one precious pearl, he went his
way, and sold all that he had, and bought it.

commanded it to be given. 10And he sent,

head was brought in a dish : and it was given

she said, Yea, lord : for the whelps also eat
of the crumbs that fall from the table of their

her, O woman, great is thy faith : be it done
to thee as thou wilt. And her daughter was
made whole from that hour.

29 And when Jesus was passed from thence,
lie came beside the sea of Galilee ; and ascend-
ing into the mountain, sat there. 3° And
there came to liini great multitudes, having
with them dumb persons, blind, lame, feeble,
and many others: and they cast them down
at his feet, and he cured them : :il so that the
multitudes marvelled, seeing the dumb speak,
the lame walk, the blind see: and they mag-
nified the God of Israel. :!- And Jesus called
together his Disciples, and said: 1 pity the
multitude, because three days now they con-
tinue with me, and have not what to eat :
and dismiss them fasting I will not, lest they
faint m the way. Xi And the disciples say
unto him : whence then may we get so many
loaves in the desert as to fill so great a mul-
titude? ^And Jesus said to them, How
many loaves have you? but they said, Seven,
and a few little fishes. ;;,5And he commanded
the multitude to sit down upon the ground.
86 And taking the seven loaves and the
ii>hcs, and giving thanks, he brake, and gave
to his disciples, and the disciples gave to the
people. •'''And they did all eat, and had
their fill. And that which was left of the
fragments they took up, seven baskets full.

they understood that be saidnol they should

doctrine of the Pharisees and JSaddueees.

13 And Jesus came into the quart i
Csesarea Philippi: and lie asked his disciples,
Savin ff, Whom say men that the Son of man

is? "lint they said, Some John the Baptist,
and othersome Kims, and others Jeremy,
or one of the Prophets. "Jesus saith to
them, But whom do you say that I amy

Christ, the son of the living God. '"And
Jesus answering, said to him, Blessed art
thou Simon bar-Jona : because flesh and
blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my
lather which is in heaven. '"And 1 say to
thee. That thou art Peter; and upon this
Rock will I build my Church, and the gates

•Then be commanded his disciples that

they should tell nobody that he was Jesus
Christ.

-' From that time Jesus began to shew his
disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and

Buffer many things of the Ancients and

Scribes, and chief Priests, and be killed, and
the third day rise again. '-"-'And Peter taking
him unto him, began to rebuke him, Baying,

Lord, he it far from thee, this shall not be
unto thee. -'Who turning, said to Peter,

Go after me, Satan, tiioii ait a scandal unto
me: because thou savourest not the things
that are of God, hut the things that are of
men. "Then Jesus said to his disoiples,If
any man will come alter me, let him deny
himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

-' For be that will save his life, shall lose it ;

and he that shall lose Ins life for me, shall

said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be
liere: if thou wilt, let us make here three
tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moyses,
and one for Elias. 5And as he was yet speak-
ing, behold a bright cloud overshadowed
them. And lo a voice out of the cloud, say-
ing, This is my well-beloved Son, in whom I
am well pleased : hear ye him. 6And the
disciples heariug it, fell upon their face, and
were sore afraid. 'And Jesus came and
touched them : and he said to them, Arise,
and fear not. sAnd they lifting up their eyes,
saw nobody, but only Jesus. 9And as they
descended from the mount. Jesus commanded
them, sayiug, Tell the vision to nobody, till
the Son of man be risen from the dead.

10And his Disciples asked him, saying,
What say t he Scribes then, that Elias must
come first ? " But he answering, said to
them, Elias indeed shall come, and restore
all things. 1:And I say to you, that Elias is
already come, and they did not know him,
but wrought on him whatsoever they would.
So also the Son of man shall suffer of them.
uThen the Disciples understood, that of
John the Baptist he had spoken to them.

14And when lie was come unto the multi-
tude, there came to him a man, falling down
upon his knees before him, 15sayiug, Lord,
have mercy upon my son, for he is lunatic,
and sore vexed : for he falleth often into the
fire, and often into the water: ,6and I
offered him to thy Disciples ; and they could
not cure him. 1; Jesus answered and said,
O faithless and perverse generation, how long
shall I be with you? How long shall I
suffer you? bring him hither to me. '\Vnd
Jesus rebuked him, and the devil went out
of him. and the lad was cured from that
hour. ••Then came the Disciples to Jesus
secretly, and said, Why could not wi
him out ? * Jesus said to them, because of
your incredulity. For, amen I say to you, if
you have faith as a mustard seed, you shall
say to this mountain, Remove from hence
thither: and it shall remove, and nothing
■ball be impossible to you. '-'But tins kind

21 Then came Peter unto him, and said.
Lord, how often shall my brother offend
against me, and I forgive him ? until seven
times? —Jesus said to him, I say not to
thee until seven times,but until seventy times
seven times. 2a Therefore is the kingdom of
heaven likened to a man being a king, that
would make an account with his servants.
24And when he began to make the account,
there was one presented unto him that
owed him ten thousand! talents. ^And
having not whence to repay it, his lord com-
manded that he should be sold, and his
wife and children, and all that lie had, and
it to be repayed. *But that servant falling
down, besought him, saying, Have patience
toward me, and I will repay thee all. "Ami
the lord of that servant, moved with pity,
dismissed him, and the debt he forgave him.
aAnd when that servant was gone forth, he
found one of his fellow-servants that did
owe him an hundred pence ; and laying
hands upon him, throttled him, saying. Re-
pay that thou owest. -9And his fellow-ser-
vant, falling down, besought him, saying,
Have patience toward me, and I will repay
thee all. *' And he would not ; but went his
way, and cast him into prison till he repayed
the debt. '"And his fellow-servants seeing
what, was done, were very sorry, and they
came and told their lord all that was done.
3-Then his lord called him ; and he said unto
him. Thou ungracious servant, 1 forgave thee
all the debt because thou bcsoughlest me:
oughtest not thou therefore also to have
mercy upon thy fellow-servant, even as I
had mercy upon thee? 31And his lord, being
angry, delivered him to the tormentors,
until he repayed all the debt. 34So also
shall my heavenly father do to you, if yon
forgive not every one his brother from your
hearts.

And it came to pass, when Jesus had
ended t hese words, he departed from Galilee,
and came into the coasts of Jewry beyond
.Jordan, -and great multitudes followed him,
and lie cured them there.

"Then were little children presented to
him, that he should impose hands upon

little children, and stay them not from

is for such. ''And when he had imposed
hands upon them, he departed from thence.

eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter

forth about the third hour, he saw others
standing in the market place idle, 4and he
said to them, Go you also into the vineyard,

5And they went their way. And again he
went forth about the sixth and the ninth hour,

hour he went forth and found others stand-

here all the day idle? "They say to him,
because no man hath hired us. He saith to
them, Go you also into the vineyard.

8 And when evening was come, the lord o
the vineyard saith to his bailiff, Call the
workmen, and pay them their hire, beginning
from the last even to the first. 9 Therefore
when they were come that came about the
eleventh hour, they received every one a
penny. 10 But when the first also came, they
thought that they should receive more: and
they also received everyone a penny. "And
receiving it, they murmured against the good
man of the house, B saying, These last have
continued one hour, and thou hast made
them equal to us that have borne the bur-
den of the day and the heats. 13But lie
answering said to one of them, Friend, I do
thee no wrong: didst thou not covenant with
me for a penny ? 14 Take that is thine, and
go: I will also give to this last even as to thee
also. 15 Or, is it not lawful for me to do that
1 will? is thine eye naught, because I am
good? "So shall the last be first, and the
first, last. For many be called, but few

\ ml when tliey went out from Jericho,
a great multitude followed him. ""And, be-
hold, two blind men, sitting by the wayside,
heard thai Jesus passed by, and they cried
out Baying, Lord, have mercy upon us, son of
David. M And the multitude rebuked them
that they should hold their peace. But they
cried out the mere, Baying, Lord, have mercy
upon us, son of David. ''-'And .lesus Mood,

I lint 1 do to you? ■'•'They say to him, Lord,

having compassion on them, touched their
eyes. And immediately they saw, and fol-
lowed him.

And when they drew nigh to Jerusalem,
and were come to Beth-phagec, unto Mount-
olivet, then Jesus sent two disciples, 'saying
to them. Go ye into the town that is against
you, and immediately you ^hall find an ass
tied, and a colt with Iter: loose them, and
bring them to me; Band if any man shall say

fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophet,
saying. 5 Say ye to the daughter of Sion. Be-
hold thy king cometh to thee, meek, and sit-
ting upon an OSS, mid a roll, the foal of her
thai is used to the yoke. fi And the disciples,
gomg, did as Jesus commanded them. ? And
they brought the ass and the colt, and laid
their garments upon them, and made him to
sit thereon. "And a very great multitude
spread their garments in the way: and

others did cut boughs from the trees, and
strewed them in the way: '-'and the multi-

18 And in the morning returning into the
city, lie was an liungred. 19 Ami seeing a cer-
tain fig-tree by the way side, he came to it ;
and found nothing on it, but leaves only :
and he saith to it, Never grow there fruit of
thee for ever. And incontinent the fig-tree
was withered. ;oAnd the disciples seeing it,
marvelled, saying, How is it withered incon-
tinent ? :1 And Jesus answering Baid to
them, Amen I say to you, if you shall have
faith, and stagger not, not only that of the
fig-tree shall you do, but and if you shall say
to this mountain, Take up, and throw thy-
self into the sea, it shall be done. -And all
things whatsoever you shall ask in prayer,
believing, you shall receive.

13 And when he was come into the temple,
there came to him, as he was teaching, the
chief Priests and ancients of the people, say-
ing. In what power doest thou these things ?
and who hath given thee this power? ;i Je-
sus answering said to them, i also will ask
you one word: which if you shall tell me,
1 also will tell you in what power 1 do these
things. -'The Baptism of John, whence w;is
it? from heaven, or from men? But they
thought within themselves, saying, 26lt we
shall say, from heaven, he will say to us, why
then did you not believe him? but if we
shall say, from men, we fear the multitude;
for all hold John as a Prophet. -'And an-
swering to Jesus they said, We know not.
He also said to them, Neither do 1 tell you
in what power 1 do these things.

28 But what is your opinion? A certain
man had two sons: and coming to the first,
he said, Son, go work to-day in my vineyard.
-'And be answering, said, 1 will not. But
afterward, moved with repentance, he went.
* And coming to the other, he said likewise.
And he answering, said, 1 go, Lord; and he
unit not. ai Which of the two did the
father's will? They say to him, The first.
Jesus saith to them, Amen I say to you, that
the Publicans and whores go before you into
the kingdom of God. --'For John came to
you in the waj of justice, and you did nol be-
lieve him : but the publicans and whores did
believe him ; but you seeing it, neither have"
ye hud repentance afterward, h> believe him.

Beeing the son, said within themselves, This

is the lieir ; come, let us kill liim, and we shall
have his inheritance. 39And apprehending
him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard,
and killed him. • When, therefore, the lord
of the vineyard shall come, what will he do
to those husbandmen? 4I They say to him,
the naughty men he will bring to naught :
and his vineyard he will let out to other hus-
bandmen, that shall render him the fruit in
their seasons.

a Jesus saith to them, Have you never rend
in the Scriptures, The .stone which the build-
er.s rejected, Ihe same is made into the head
of the corner? B>/ our lord was this done,

and it is marvellous in our eyes. ^There-
fore I say to you, that the kingdom of God
shall be taken away from you, and shall be
given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof.
** And he that falleth upon this stone, shall
be broken: and on whom it falleth it shall
all to bruise him. * And when the chief
Priests and Pharisees had heard his parables,
they knew that he spake of them. '"'And
seeking to lay hands upon him, they feared
the multitudes; because they held him as a
Prophet.

And Jesus answering, spake again in para-
bles to tli em, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven
is likened to a man being a king, which made
a marriage to his son. 'And he sent his ser-
vants to call them that were invited to the
marriage; and they would not come. 4 A gain
he sent other servants, saying, Tell them that
were invited, Behold, 1 have prepared my
dinner, my beeves and fatlings are killed, and
all things are ready; come ye tothe marriage.
■'' l!ut they neglected, and went their ways,
one to his farm, and another to his merchan-
dise; ''and the rest laid hands upon his ser-
vants, and spitefully entreating them, mur-
dered them, 'liut when the king had heard
of it, he was wroth, and sending his hosts,
destroyed those murderers, and burnt their
city. "Then he snith to his servants, The
marriage indeed is ready, but they that were
invited, were not worthy; 9go ye therefore
into the highways, and whosoever you shall
find, call to the marriage. '"And his servants,
going forth into the ways, gathered together
all that they found, had and good : and the
marriage was filled with guests. "And the
king went in to see tin- guests; and lie snv
there a man not attired m a wedding gar-
ment. '-And he saith to him, Friend, how
earnest thou in hither not having a wedding
garment? lint he was dumb, '•' I hen the king
(-aid to the waiters, Bind his hands and feet,
and east him into the utter darkness : there
shall he weeping and gnashing of teeth. "For
many he called, but few elect.

''Then the Pharisees departing, consulted
among themselves for to entrap him in his
talk. '•And they send to him their disciples
with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know
that thou art a true speaker, and teaches! the

illi: Malos male perdet: et vineam suani locabit aliis

Dicit illis Jesus: Numquam legistis in Scripturis: 42

Et respondens Jesus, dixit iterum in parabolis eis. 22
dicens: simile factum est regnum ccclorum homini 2

audientes mirati sunt, et relicto eo abierunt.

23 In illo die accesserunt ad eum Sadducrei, qui dicunt
non esse resurrectionem: et interrogaverunt eum,

24 dicentes : Magister, Moyses dixit: Si quis mortuus
fuerit non habens filium, ut ducat frater ejus uxorem

25 illius, et suscitet semen fratri suo. Erant autem apud

27 mum. Novissime autem omniiun et mulier defuncta

28 est. In resurrectione ergo cujus erit de septem uxor?

29 omnes enim habuerunt earn. Respondens autem Jesus,
ait illis: Erratis, nescientes Scripturas, neque virtutem

30 Dei. In resurrectione enim neque nubent, neque

31 nubentur: sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in coclo. De

son of men : ]' tell us therefore what is thy
opinion, is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar,
or not? lsBut Jesus, knowing their naughti-
ness, said, What do you tempt me, Hypocrites?
19 Shew me the tribute coin. Aud they
offered him a penny. '^And Jesus saith to
them, Whose is this image and superscrip-
tion ? :l They say to him, Caesar's. Then he
saith 4to them, Kender therefore the things
that are Caesar's, to Caesar : and the things
that are God's, to God. -And hearing it
they marvelled, and leaving him went their
ways.

23 That day there came to him the Saddu-
cees, that say there is no resurrection: and
asked him, *• saying, Master, Moyses said, If
a man die not having a child, that his
brother marry his wife, and raise up seed to
his brother. -And tliere were with us seven
brethren: and the first having married a
wife, died; and not having issue, left his wife
to his brother. :6 In like manner the second
and the third, even to the seventh. ^Andjast
of all the woman died also. a in the resurrec-
tion, therefore, whose wife of the seven shall
she be? for they all had her. c And Jesus an-
swering, said to them, You do err, not know-
ing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 For in the resurrection, neither shall they
marry nor be married : but are as the Angels
of God in heaven. 31And concerning the
resurrection of the dead, have you not read
that which was spoken of God, saying to you,
32 / am the God of Abraham, and the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob I He is
not God of the dead, but of the living.
3And the multitudes hearing it, marvelled at
his doctrine.

31 Iiut the Pharisees hearing that he had
put the Sadducees to silence, came together :
"and one of them, a doctor of law, asked of
him, tempting him, M Master, which is the
great commandment in the law? V Jesus

:' Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees, hy-
pocrites ; because you are like to whited
sepulchres, which outwardly appear unto
men beautiful, but within are full of dead
men's bones, and all filthiness. ^So you
also outwardly indeed appear to men just ;
but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and
iniquity.

19 Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees, ye
hypocrites; because you build the Prophets'
sepulchres, and garnish the monuments of
just men, 3° and say, If we had been in our
fathers' days, we had not been their fellows
in the blood of the Prophets. 31 Therefore
you are a testimony to your ownselves, that
you are the sons of them that killed the Pro-

Ehets. 3-And fill you up the measure of your
ithers. s You serpents, vipers' broods, how
will you flee from the judgment of hell?
34 Therefore behold, I send unto you Prophets
and wise men, and scribes, and of them
you shall kill and crucify, and of them you
shall scourge in your Synagogues, and per-
secute from city into city ; -^ that upon you
may come all the just blood that was shed
upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the
just, even unto the blood of Zacharias t he
son of Barachias, whom you murdered be-
tween the temple and the altar. "Amen I
say to you, all these things shall come upon
this generation. 3/~ Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
which killest the Prophets, and stoneat them
that were sent to thee, how often would I
gather together thy children as the hen doth
gather together her chickens under her wings,
and thou' wouldest not? ^Behold, your
house shall be left desert to you. :<l For 1 say
to you, you shall not see me from henceforth
till you say, Blessed is he that comet h iu the
name of our Lord.

And Jesus being gone out of the temple,
went. And his disciples came to shew him
the buildings of the temple. -And he an-
swering, said to them, Do you see all these
things ? Amen I say to you, there shall ii"l
be left here a stone upon a stone that shall
not be destroyed.

shall rise; and shall seduce many. '-And be-

many shall wax cold. 1:i But he that shall
persevere to the end, he shall be saved. HAnd
this Gospel of the kingdom shall he preached
in the whole world, for a testimony to all
nations, aud then shall come the consum-
mation.

'•' Therefore when you shall see the abotni-
nation of desolation, which was spoken of by
Daniel the Prophet, standing in the holy place
(he that readeth,let him understand) ™ then
they that, are in Jewry, let them flee to the
mountains; "and he that is on the house-top,
let him not come down to take anything out
of his house; lsand he that is in the Geld, let
him not go back to take his coat. ''-'And woe
to them that arc with child, and that give

suck in those days, -'lint pray that your
flight be not in the winter or on the Sabbath.
-' For i here shall he then great tribulation,
such as hath not been from the beginning of
the world until now, neither shall be. --'And
Unless those days had been short ened, no
flesh should be saved: but for the elect, the
days shall be shortened. '-'Then if any man
shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or
there"; do not believe him. -' For there shall
rise false Christs and false Prophets, and
shall shew great si^ns and wonders, so that
the elect also (if il he possible) may be in-
duced into error. -' Lo, 1 have foretold you.
-6 If therefore they shall say unto von, He-
hold, be is in the desert, go ye not out ;
behold, in the closets, believe it not. '-; For
as Lightning comet h out of the east, and ap-
peareth even into the west, bo shall also the
advent of the son of man be. B Wheresoever
the body is, thither shall the eagles also be
gal hcred together.

'-'And immediately after the tribulation of
those days the BUU shall be darkened, and
the moon shall not give her light, and the
Btan shall fall from heaven, and the powers
of heaven shall be moved; '"'and then shall
appear the sum of t he Son of man in heaven :

did it not to one of these lesser, neither did
you it to me. 46And these shall go into pun-
ishment everlasting; but the just, into life

And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended
all these words, he said to his Disciples, - You
know that after two days shall be Pasche,
and the Son of man shall be delivered to be
crucified. a Then were gathered together the
chief Priests and ancients of the people into
the court of the high priest, who was called
Caiphas: 4and they consulted how they
might by some wile apprehend Jesus, ami
kill him. 5But they said. Not on the festival
day, lest perhaps there might be a tumult
among the people.

6And when Jesus was in Tlothania, in the
house of Simon the Leper, "• there came to
him a woman having an alabaster-box of

Erecious ointment, and poured it out upon
is head as he sat at the table. 8 And the
Disciples seeing it, had indignation, saying,
Whereto is this waste? 9 for this might have
been sold for much, and given to the poor.
"'And Jesus knowing it, said to them. Why
do you molest this woman? for she hath
wrought a good work upon me. " For I ho

ointment upon my body, hath done it to bury

the Disciples did as Jesus appointed them,
and they prepared the Pasche. -u But when
it was even, he sat down with his twelve
Disciples. nAnd while they were eating, he
said, Amen I suy to you, that one of you
shall betray me. 2-'And they being very sad,
began every one to say, Is it I, Lord? ^But
he answering, said, lie that dippeth his hand

M The Hon of man indeed goeth as it is writ-

"And .Judas that betrayed him, answering,
said, is it 1, Kabbi? He saith to him, Thou
hast said.

-Y,And while they were at supper, Jesus
took bread, and blessed, and brake; and he
gave to his Disciples, and said, Take ye, 'and
eat: This is my body. 27And taking the
chalice, he gave thanks; and nave to them,
saying, Drink ye all of this. MFor THIS is

from henceforth of this fruit of the vine,

hymn being said, they went forth unto
Mount-olivet.

31 Then Jesus saith to them, All yon shall
be scandalized in me, in this night, Tor it is
written, / will strike Hi'' Pastor, <i>id the
sheep of the flock shall be dispersed. 8JBut

after I shall he risen again, I will go before

said to him, Amen I say to thee, that in this
night before the cock crow, thou shalt deny

me thrice. : ' Peter saith to him, Sea though
I should die with thee, 1 will not deny thee.
Likewise also said all the Disciples.

•'"'Then Jesus eometh witli them into a
village called Getlisemani; and he said to
his Disciples, Sit you here till I go yonder,

47 Adhuc- eo loquente, ecce Judas unus de duodecim
venit, et cum eo turba multa cum gladiis, ei fustibus,
missi a principibus sacerdotum, et senioribus populi.

48 Qui autem tradidit eum, dedit illis signum, dicens:
Quemcumque osculatus fuero, ipse est, tenete eum.

49 Et confestim accedens ad Jesum, dixit: Ave Rabbi.

50 Et osculatus est eum. Dixitque illi Jesus: Amice,
ad quid venisti? Tunc accesserunt, et manus injece-

5 1 runt in Jesum, et tenuerunt eum. Et ecce unus ex
his, qui erant cum Jesu, extendens manum, exemit
gladium suum, et percutiens servum principis sacerdo-

quia non possum rogare patrem meum, et exhibebit
mihi modo plusquam duodecim legiones angelorum?

54 Quomodo ergo implebuntur Scriptural, quia sic oportet

55 fieri? In ilia hora dixit Jesus turbis: Tamquam ad

again, and lie prayed the third time, raying
the self-same word. * Then he coineth to
his Disciples, and saith to them, Sleep ye now,
and take rest ; behold the hour approachetli,
and the Son of man shall be betrayed into
the hands of sinners. « Rise, let us go ; be-
hold, he approachetli that shall betray me.

4:As he yet spake, behold Judas one of the
Twelve came, and with him a great multitude
with swords and clubs, sent from the chief
Priests and the ancients of the people. 48And
he that betrayed him gave them a sign, say-
ing. Whomsoever 1 shall kiss, that is he, hold
him. "l9And forthwith coming to Jesus, he
saui. Hail, Rabbi ; and he kissed him. 5nAnd
Jesus said to him, Friend, whereto art thou
come? Then they drew near, and laid hands
on Jesus, and held him. 51And behold one of
them that were with Jesus, stretching forth
his hand, drew out his sword : and striking
the servant of the high Priest, cut off his ear.
": Then Jesus saith to him, Return thy sword
into his place; for all that take the sword,
shall perisli with the sword. H L'hinkest
thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he
will give me presently more than twelve
legions of Angels? Hfibw then shall the
scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be
done? ;5In that hour Jesus said to the
multitudes. You are come out as it were to a
thief, with swords and clubs to apprehend
me: I sat daily with you teaching in the
temple, and you laid no hands on me.
5And all this was done that the scriptures of
the Prophets might be fulfilled. Then the
disciples all leaving him, fled.

they answering said, lie is guilty of death.
W Then did they spit on his face, and buili-t ed
him, and other smote his face with the
palms of their hands, ^ saying, Prophesy
unto us, 0 Christ ; who is he that struck
thee?

r9 But Peter sat without in the court; and
there came to him one wench, saying. Thou
also wast with Jesus the Galilean. 70 But he
denied before them_all, saying, I wot not
what thou sayest. ?1And as he went out of
the gate, another wench saw him, and she
saith to (hem that were there, And this
fellow also was with Jesus the Nazarite.
"-And again he denied with an oath, That
I know not the man. ;3And after a little
they came that stood by, and said to Peter,
Surely thou also art of them, for even thy
speech doth bewray thee. 7* Then he began
to curse and to swear that he knew not the
man. And incontinent the cock crew. '''And
Peter remembered the word of Jesus which
he had said, Before the cock crow, thou
shalt deny me thrice. And going forth, he
wept bitterly.

And when morning was come, all the chief
Priests and ancients of the people consulted
together against Jesus, that they might put
him to death. -And they brought him bound,
and delivered him to Ponce Pilate the Pre-
sident.

8 Then Judas that betrayed him, seeing
that lie was condemned, repenting him, re-
turned the thirty silver pieces to the chief
Priests and ancients, ''saying, I have sinned,
betraying just blood. But they said, What
is that to us? look thou to it. 6And cast-
ing down the silver pieces in the temple, he
departed ; and went and hanged himself with
an halter. 6And the chief Priests having
taken the silver pieces, said, It is not law-
ful to cast them into the t'orbana, because
it is the price of blood. ''And after they
had consulted together, they bought witli
them the potter's field, to be a burying place
for strangers. H For this cause that field was
called Hacetdama, that is, the field of blood,
even to this present day. '['hen was ful-
filled that which was spoken by Jeremie
the Prophet, saying, And they took the
thirty pieces of silver, the price of the priced,
whom thei/ did price of the children of
Israel ; "' and then (/nre them into the potter s
field, as our Lord did appoint to me.

"And Jesus stood before the President,
and the President asked liim, Baying, Art
thou the King of the Jews? Jesus saith to
him, Thou sayest. l:And when he was ac-
cused of the chief Priest9 and ancients, lie
answered nothing. 13 Then Pilate saith to
him, Dost thou not hear how many testi-
monies they allege against thee? 14And he
answered him not to any word; so that the
President did marvel exceedingly.

'And upon the solemn day the President
had accustomed to release unto the people
one prisoner whom they would. "'And he
had then a notorious prisoner, that was called

Petrus vero sedebat foris in atrio; et accessit ad eura 69
una ancilla, dicens: Et tu cum Jesu Galilreo eras.
At ille negavit coram omnibus, dicens: Xescio quid 70
dicis. Exeunte autem illo januam, vidit eum alia 71
ancilla, et ait his, qui erant ibi : Et hie erat cum Jesu
Nazareno. Et iterum negavit cum juramento: Quia 72
non novi hominem. Et post pusillum accesserunt qui j$
stabant, et dixerunt Petro: Vere et tu ex illis es:
nam et loquela tua manifestum te facit. Tunc cccpit 74
detestari, et jurare quia non novisset hominem. Et
continuo gallus cantavit. Et recordatus est Petrus 75
verbi Jesu, quod dixerat: Prius quam gallus cantet,
ter me negabis. Et egressus foras, flevit amare.

Mane autem facto, consilium inierunt omnes princi- 27
pes sacerdotum, et seniores populi adversus Jesum, ut
eum morti traderent. Et vinctum adduxerunt eum, 2
et tradiderunt Pontio Pilato prasidi.

Tunc videns Judas, qui eum tradidit, quod damnatus 3
esset; peenitentia ductus, retulit trigmta argenteos
principibus sacerdotum, et senioribus, dicens: Peccavi, 4
tradens sanguinem justum. At illi dixerunt: Quid
ad nos? tu videris. Et projectis argenteis in templo, 5
recessit: et abiens laqueo se suspendit. Princi pes 6
autem sacerdotum, acccptis argenteis, dixerunt: Xon
licet eos mittere in corbonam: quia pretium sanguinis
est. Consilio autem inito, cmerunt ex illis agrum 7
figuli, in sepulturam peregrinorum. Propter hoc 8
vocatus est ager ille, Haceldama, hoc est, ager sangui-
nis, usque in hodiernum diem. Tunc impletum est 9
quod dictum est per Jcrcmiam prophctam, dicentem:
Et acceperunt triginta argenteos pretium appretiati,
quern apprctiaverunt a filiis Israel: et dederunt eos in IO
agrum figuli, sicut constituit mihi Dominus.

Jesus autem stetitante prrcsidem et intcrrogavit eum 1 1
prases, dicens: Tu es Rex JudsBorum? Dicit illi
Jesus: Tu dicis. Et cum accusaretur a principibus 12
Bacerdotum, et senioribus, nihil respondit. Tunc dicit 13
illi Pilatus: Xon audis quanta adversum te dicunt
testimonia? Et non respondit ei ad ullum vcrbum. 14
ita ut miraretur prseses vclicmcntcr.

18 Ckristus? Sciebat enim quod per invidiam tradidis-

eum uxor ejus, dicens: Xihil tibi et justo illi: multa

20 enim passa sum liodie per visum propter eum. Prin-
cipes autem sacerdotum, et seniores persuaserunt popu-
lis ut peterent Barabbam, Jesum vero perderent.

21 Kespondens autem praises, ait illis: Quern vultis vobis

22 deduobus dimitti? At illi dixerunt : Barabbam. Dicit
illis Pilatus: Quid igitur faciam de Jesu, qui dicitur

23 Christus? Dicunt omnes: Crucifigatur. Ait illis
praeses: Quid enim mali fecit? At illi magis clama-

24 bant dicentes: Crucifigatur. Videns autem Pilatus
quia nihil proficeret, sed magis tumultus fieret: accepta
aqua, lavit manus coram populo, dicens : Innocens ego

25 sum a sanguine justi hujus: vos videritis. Et respon-
dens universus populus, dixit: Sanguis ejus super nos,

26 et super filios nostros. Tunc dimisit illis Barabbam :
Jesum autem flagellatum tradidit eis ut crucifi^eretur.

27 Tunc milites prajsidis suscipientes Jesum in pncto-

together, Pilate said, 'Whom will you that
I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus that is
called Christ ? 18For he knew that for envy
they had delivered him. ,9 And as lie was
sitting in place of judgment, his wife sent
unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do
with that just man; for I have suffered
many things this day in my sleep for him.
^But the chief Priests and ancients per-
suaded the people that they should ask Ba-
rabbas, and make Jesus away. -'And the
President answering said to them, Whether
will you of the two to be released unto you ?
But they said, Barabbas. -Pilate saith to
them, What shall 1 do then with Jesus that
is called Christ ? They say all. Let him be
crucified. aXhe President said to them,
Why, what evil hath he done? But they
cried the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 And Pilate, seeing that he nothing pre-
vailed, but rather tumult was toward, taking
water he washed his hands before the people,
saying, I am innocent of the blood of this
just man: look you to it. M And the whole
people answering, said, His blood be upon us,
and upon our children. ";6Xhen he released
to them Barabbas, and having scourged
Jesus, delivered him unto them for to be
crucified.

:'"Thcn the President's soldiers, taking
Jesu9 into the Palace, gathered together unto
him the whole band, Band stripping him,
put a scarlet cloak about him, -'and plaiting
a crown of thorns, put it upon his head, and
a reed in his right hand; and bowing the
knee before him, they mocked him, saying,
Hail! King of the Jews. 3lAnd spitting
upon him, they took the reed, and smote his

manner also the chief Priest I with the Scribes
and ancients mocking, said, ^He saved
other, himself he cuiniot save ; if he be the
King of Israel, let him now come flown from
the Crow, and we will believe him. ■" He
trusted in God, let him now deliver him if he
will; for he said, That 1 am the son of God.
"And the self-same thing the thieves also,
that were crucilied with him, reproached him
withal.

' Lnd from the sixth hour, there was dark-
ness made upon the whole earth, until the
ninth hour. 'And about the ninth hour
Jesus cried with a mighty voice, Baying, Eli,
Eli,lama-sabacthani? that is, My Grod,mff
Ood, why hast thou forsaken me! l7And
certain that stood there and heard, said,
Ee calleth Elias. *And incontinent one ol
them running, took a sponge, and tilled it
with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and cave
him to drink. -"And other said, Let be,
let us sec whether Klias come to deliver him.
'■'And Jesus, again crying with a mighty
voice, yielded up the ghost. 51 And behold
the veil of the temple was rent in two pieces,
from the top even to the bottoms and the
earth did quake, and the rocks were rent,
52and the graves were opened, and many
bodies of the saints that, had slept, rose.
' \iid they, going forth out of the graves
after his resurrection, came into the holy
city, and appeared to many. •'' And the Cen-
turion, and they that were with him watch-
ing Jesus, having seen the earthquake and
the things that were done, were sore afraid,
saying, Indeed this was the son of God.

6"' And there were there many women nfar
oil', which had followed Jesus from Galilee,
ministering unto him; Mamongwhom was
Marie Magdalene, and Marie the mother of
James and Joseph, and the mother of the
sons of Zebedee. "And when it was even-
ing, there came a certain rich man of Ari-
mathira, named Joseph, who also himself WM

asked the body of Jesus. Then Pilate com-
manded that the body should be delivered.

clean linen, '"and laid it in his own new

rock. And he rolled a great stone to the
door of the monument, and went his way.

sepulchre.

And in the evening of the Sabbath, which
dawneth on the first of the Sabbath, came
Marie Magdalene and the other Marie to see
the sepulchre. - And behold there was made
a great earthquake. For an Angel of our
Lord descended from heaven, and coming,
rolled back the stone, and sat upon it : sand
his countenance was as lightning ; and his
garment as snow. 4 And for fear of him the
watchmen were frighted, and became as
dead. 5 And the Angel answering said to the
women, Fear you not ; for I know that you
seek Jesus that was crucified; 6he is not
here : for he is risen, as he said ; come, and
see the place where our Lord was laid. 7 And
going quickly, tell ye his Disciples that he is
risen: and behold he goeth before you into
Galilee ; there you shall see him ; lo, I have
foretold you.

8 And they went forth quickly out of the
monument with fear and great joy, running
to tell his Disciples. 9 And behold Jesus met
them, saying, All hail ! But they came near
and took hold of his feet, and adored him.
10 Then Jesus said to them, Fear not; go,
tell my brethren that they go into Galilee,
there they shall see me.

11 Who, when they were departed, behold
certain of the watchmen came into the city,
and told the chief Priests all things that had
been done. [* Aud being assembled together
with the ancients, taking counsel, thev gave a
great sum of money to the soldiers, 13 saying,

and stole him away when we were asleep.

will persuade him, and make you secure.

day.

JESU CHRISTI
EYANGELIUM SECUNDUM MAECUM.

Tnr, beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ,
the son of God. 2As it is written in Esay
the Prophet, (Behold 1 .scurf mine Angel be-
fore thil face, who shall prepare thy Way

before thee,) SA voice of one crying in the
desert, Prepare ye the inn/ of our Lord;
make straight his paths. 'John was in the
desert, baptizing, and preaching the baptism
of penance unto remission of sms. 'And
there went forth to him all the country of
Jewry, and all they of Jerusalem ; and were
baptized of him in t he river of Jordan, confess-
ing their sins. ''And John was clothed with
camel's hair, and a girdle of a skin about his
loins ; and he did eat locusts and wild honey.
7 And he preached, saying, There cometh a
stronger than 1 after me: whose latchet of
his shoes I am not worthy stooping down to
unloose. 8I have baptized you with water,
but he shall baptize you with the holy
Ghost.

9 And it came to pass, in those days came
Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee, and was
baptized of John in Jordan. 10And forth-
with coining up out of the water, lie saw the
heavens opened, and the Spirit as a dove de-
scending, and remaining on him, " And a
voice was made from heaven, Thou art my
beloved son, in thee I am well pleased.

12 And forthwith the Spirit drove him out
into the desert. ttAnd lie was in the desert-
forty days, and forty nights: and was
tempted of Satan ; and he was with beasts,
and the Angels ministered to him.

"And after that John was delivered up,
Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gos-
pel of the kingdom of God, "and saying
That the time is fulfilled, and the king. lorn
of God is at hand: be penitent, and believe
the Gospel.

"'• And passing by the sea of Galilee, he saw
Simon and Andrew his brother, east ing nets
into the sea (for they were Ushers): '"and

Jesus said to them. Come after me, and I will
make you to become Ushers of men. uAnd
immediately leaving their nets, they followed
him. "And being gone thence a little fur-
ther, he saw James of Zebedee, and John his
brother, and them repairing their nets in the
ship : -""and forthwith he called them. And

INITIUM Evangelii Jcsu Chriati, Filii Dei. Sicut 2
scriptum est in [saia propheta: Ecce ego mitto angc-
lum mciim ante faciem tuam, qui pneparabit viani
tuam ante te. Vox clamantis in deserto: Parate viam 3
Domini, rectas facite scmitas ejus. Fuit Joannes in 4
deserto baptizans, ct pnedieans baptismum poenitentiae
in remissioncm peccatorum. Et egrediebatur ad cum 5
omnia Judaeae regio, et Ierosolymitae univcrsi, ct bap-
tizabantur ab illo in Jordanis flumine, confitentcs
peccata sua. Et erat Joannes vestitus pilis caineli. et 6
zona pellicea circa lumbos ejus: et locustas et mcl
silvestrc edebat. Et piaedicabat dicens: Venit f'ortior 7
me post me: cujus non sum dignus procumbens
solvere corrigiam calccamentorum ejus. Egobaptizavi 8
vos aqua, illo vero baptizabit vos Spiritu sancto.

Et factum est, in dicbus illis venit Jesus a Nazareth 9
Galilee: et baptizatus est a Joanne in Jordane. Et 10
statim ascendens de aqua, vidit ccelos apcrtos, et Spiri-
tum tamquam columbam descendentem, ct manentem
in ipso. Et vox facta est dc eojlis: Tu cs lilius meus I I
dilcctus, in te complacui.

Et statim Spiritus cxpulit cum in descrtum. Et 12, 13
erat in deserto quadraginta dicbus, ct quadraginta
noctibus: et tentabatur a satana : cratque cum bestiis,
ct angeli ministrabant illi.

Postquam autein traditua est Joannes, venit Jesus 14
in Galilaeam, pnedieans Evangelium regni Dei, ct 15
dicens: Quoniam implctum est tempus, et appro-
pinquavit regnum Dei: poenitemini, et credite Evan-

geiio.

Et prseteriena sccus Marc Galilseee, vidit Simoncm, 16
el Andream fratrem ejus, mittentee vctia in mare(erant
cnim piscatores). Et dixit eis Jesus: Venite post \~
me, et faciam vos fieri piscatores hominum. Et proti- 18
nus relictis retibus, sccuti sunt eum. Et progressus 19
inde pusillum, vidit Jacobum Zebedsei, et Joannem
fratrem ejus, et ipsos componcntcs rctia in navi. Et 20

statim vocavit illos. Et relicto patre suo Zebedaso in
navi cum mercenariis, secuti sunt eum.

21 Et ingrediuntur Capliarnaum : et statim sabbatis

22 ingressus in synagogam, docebat eos. Et stupebant
super doctrina ejus: erat enim docens eos, quasi potes-

23 tatem habens, et non sicut Scribae. Et erat in synagoga
eorum homo in spiritu immundo: et exclamavit,

24 dicens : Quid nobis et tibi, Jesu Xazarene : venisti

25 perdere nos? scio qui sis, Sanctus Dei. Et commina-
tus est ei Jesus, dicens: Obmutesce, et exi de homine.

26 Et discerpens eum spiritus immundus, et exclamans

27 voce magna exiit ab eo. Et mirati sunt omnes, ita ut
conquirerent inter se dicentes: Quidnam est hoc?
quaenam doctrina haec nova? quia in potestate etiam

28 spiritibus immundis imperat, et obediunt ei. Et pro-
cessit rumor ejus statim in omnem regionem Galikeae.

29 Et protinus egredientes de synagoga, venerunt in
domum Siraonis, et Andreas, cum Jacobo et Joanne.

30 Decumbebat autem socrus Simonis febricitans: et

31 statim dicunt ei de ilia. Et accedens elevavit earn,
apprehensa manu ejus: et continuo dimisit earn febris,

32 et ministrabat eis. Vespere autem facto cum occidis-
set sol, afferebant ad eum omnes male habentes, et

33 demonia habentes: et erat omnis civitas congregata

34 ad januam. Et curavit multos, qui vexabantur variis
languoribus, et daemonia multa ejiciebat, et non sine-
bat ea loqui, quoniam sciebant eum.

35 Et diluculo valde surgens, egressus abiit in desertum

36 locum, ibique orabat. Et prosecutus est eum Simon,

37 et qui cum illo erant. Et cum invenissent cum, dixe-

38 runt ei: Quia omnes quaerunt te. Et ait illis: Eamus
in proximos vicos, et civitates, ut et ibi praedicem: ad
hoc enim veni.

39 Et erat pnedicans in synagogis eorum, et in omni

40 Galifaea, et daemonia ejiciens. Et venit ad eum leprosus

leaving their father Zebedee in the ship with
hL> hired men, they followed him.

21 And they enter into Capharnaum, and
he forthwith upon the Sabbaths, going into
the Synagogue, taught them. -And they
were astonied at his doctrine ; for he was
teaching them as having power, and not as
the Scribes. 3 And there was in their Syna-
gogue a man in an unclean spirit: and he
cried out, M saying. What to us and to thee,
Jesus of Nazareth ? art thou come to destroy
us ? I kuow who thou art, the Saint of God.
25 And Jesus threatened him, saying, Hold
thy peace, and go out of the man. '^And
the unclean spirit, tearing him, and crying
out with a great voice, went out of him.
2; And they marvelled all, insomuch that
they questioned among themselves, saying,
What thing is this? what is this new doc-
trine? for with power he commandeth the
unclean spirits also, and they obey him.
28 And the bruit of him went forth inconti-
nent into all the country of Galilee.

21 And immediately going forth out of the
Synagogue, they came into the house of
Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
3J And Simon's wife|s mother lay in a fit of
a fever: and forthwith they tell him of her.
3 And coming near he lifted her up, taking
her by the hand : and incontinent the ague
left, her, and she ministered unto them.
3: And when it was evening, after sunset,
they brought to him all that were ill at ease,
and that had devils.' ^ And all the city was
gathered together at the* door. ^ And he
cured many that were vexed with divers dis-
eases ; and he cast out many devils, and lie
sulfered not them to speak that they knew
him.

35 And rising very early, and going forth,
he went into a desert place : and there ln-
prayed. 3f,And Simon sought after him,
and they that were with him. 3*And when
they hid found him, they said to him, That
all seek for thee. ^And he saith to them,
Let us go into the next towns and cities, that
1 may preach there also : for to this purpose
am I come.

3'And he was preaching in their Syna-
gogues, and in all Galilee: and easting out
devils. •And a leper cometh to him, be-
seeching him: and kneeling down saith to
him, ] f thou wilt, thou canst make me clean,
41 And .Jesus, having compassion <m him,
tohed forth Ins band : and touching him,
he saith unto him, I will.be thou made clean.
Lnd when be had spoken, immediately the

leprosy departed from him, and lie WM made

clean. "And he threatened himt and forth-
with DBS! him forth ; "and he saith to him,

thou tell nobody 1 bul go, shew thj

door, and lie spake to them the word. 3 And
they came to him bringing one nick of the
palsy, who was carried of lour. 4 And when
they could not offer him unto liim for the
multitude, they uncovered the roof where lie
was; and opening it, they did let down the
couch wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
5 And when Jesus had seen their faith, he
saith to the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins
are forgiven thee. 'And there were certain
of the Scribe-* Bitting there and thinking in
their hearts, 'Why doth he speak so? he
blaspheme! h. "Who can forgive sins, but only
God? * Which by and by, .Jesus knowing in
his spirit that they so though! within them-
selves, saith to them, Why think you these
things in your hearts? IJ Whether is easier,
to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins are
forgiven thee; or to say, An.se, take up thy
couch, and walk? >" But that you may know
that the Son of man hath power in earth to
forgive sins (he saith to the sick of the palsy)
11 1 say to thee, Arise, take up thy couch, and
go into thy house. '-And forthwith hearose;
and taking up his couch, went his way in the
sight of all, so that all marvelled, and glorified
God, saying, That we never saw the like.

13 And he went forth again to the sea ; and
all the multitude came to him, and he taught
them. u And when he passed by, he saw
Levi of Alphaeus sitting at the custom place:
and he saith to him, Follow me. And rising
up, he followed him. 15 And it came to pas-.,
as he sat at meat in his house, many Publi-
cans and sinners did sit down together with
Jesus and his Disciples: for they were many,
who also followed him. "And the Scribes
and the Pharisees seeing that he did cat with
Publicans and Smut rs, said to his Disciples,
Why doth your Master eat ami drink with
Publicans and sinners? 17 Jesus hearing
this, saith to them, The whole have not
need of a Physician, but they that are ill at
ease ; for I came uot to call the just, but
sinners.

18 And the disciples of John and the Phari-
sees did use to fast; and they come and say
to him, Why do the disciples pf John and of
the Pharisees fast; hut t iiy disciples do not
fast? 19Alld Jesus said to them, Why, can
the children of the marriage fast, as long as
the bridegroom is with them? So 1 >ng tune

as they have the bridegroom with them, they
cannot fast, -'"Put the days will oome when

the bridegroom shall be taken away from
them, and then they shall fast m those days.
" Nobody seweth a piece of raw cloth to

el veniunt, et dicunt illi: Quare discipuli Joannis, et
Pharisseorum jejunant, tui autem discipuli non jeju-
nant? Et ait illis Jesus: Numquia possunt lilii 19
nuptiarum, quamdiu sponsus cum illis est, jejunare?
Quanto tempore habent Becum Bponsum, non possunt
jejunare. Venient autem dies cum auferetur ab eis 20
Bponsus: ct tune jejunabunt in illis diebus. Nemo 2 1
assumentum panni rudis assuit vestimento veteri: alio-
quin aufert Bupplementum novum a veteri, et major

res: alioquin dirumpet vinum utres. et vinum
effundetur, et utres peribunt: sed vinum novum in
utres novos mitti debet.

23 Et factum est iterum cum Dominus sabbatis ambu-
laret per sata, et discipuli ejus coeperunt progredi, et

24 vellere spicas. Pharissei autem dicebaut ei: Ecce,

25 quid faciunt sabbatis quod non licet? Et ait illis:
5<~umquam legistis quid fecerit David, quando necessi-
tatem habuit, et esuriit ipse, et qui cum eo erant?

26 Quomodo introivit in domum Dei sub Abiatbar principe
sacerdotum, et panes propositionis mandueavit, quos
non licebat manducare, nisi sacerdotibus, et dedit eis,

27 qui cum eo erant? Et dicebat eis: Sabbatum propter
hominem factum est, et non homo propter sabbatum.

28 Itaque Dominus est filius bominis, etiam sabbati.

3 Et introivit iterum in synagogam : et erat ibi homo

2 habens manum aridam. Et observabant eum, si sab-

3 batis curaret, ut accusarent ilium. Et ait homini

4 habenti manum aridam : Surge in medium. Et dicit
eis: Licet sabbatis benefacere, an male? animam

5 salvam facere, an perdere? At illi tacebant. Et cir-
cumspiciens eos cum ira, contristatus super comitate
cordis eorum, dicit homini: Extende manum tuam.
Et extendit, et restituta est manus illi.

6 Exeuntes autem Pharisaei, statirn cum Herodianis
consilium faciebant adversus eum, quomodo eum per-

Mark II. 23— III. 21.

23 And it came to pass again when he
walked through the corn on the Sabbaths,
and his Disciples began to go forward and to
pluck the ears. -'And the Pharisees said to
him, Behold, why do they on the Sabbaths
that which is not lawful ? ffi And he said to
them, Did you never read what David did
when he was in necessity, and himself was
an hungred and they that were with him ?
26 how he entered into the house of God
under Abiatbar the high Priest, and did eat
the loaves of Proposition, which it was not
lawful to eat but for the Priests, and did give
unto them which were with him ? 2<" And he
said to them, The Sabbath was made for
man, and not man for the Sabbath. -8 There-
fore the son of man is Lord of the Sabbath
also.

And he entered again into the Synagogue,
and there was a man there that had a
withered hand. 2And they watched him,
whether he would cure on the Sabbaths : that
they might accuse him. 3And he saith to
the man that had the withered hand, Eise
up into the midst. 4And he saith to them,
la it lawful on the Sabbaths to do well or ill?
to save a soul, or to destroy? but they held
their peace. 5 And looking round about upon
them with anger, being sorrowful for the
blindness of their heart, he saith to the man,
Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it
forth : and his hand was restored unto him.

"And the Pharisees going forth, immedi-
ately made a consultation with the Hero-
dians against him, how they might destroy
him. ''But Jesus with his Disciples retired
to the sea ; and a great multitude from Ga-
ud Jewry followed him; Band from
Jerusalem, and from Idumeea, and beyond
Jordan. And they about Tyre and Sidon.a
great multitude, hearing the things which be
did, came to him. <JAnd he spake lo his
Disciples that a boat might attend on him,
because of the multitude, lest they should

throng him: "'for he healed many, so that
there prosed in upon him for to touch him,
as many as bad hurls. "And tin- unclean
spirits, when they saw him, fell down unto
him: and they cried, saying, B TilOU art the
son of God. And he vehement!} charged
them that they should not disclose him.

1:1 And ascending into a mountain, he called

unto him whom be would I self; and they

came to him. " And be mad.' thai twelve
should be with hirn, and thai he might send
them to preach. "And be gave them power

when liis liad heard of it, they went forth to
lay hands on him ; for they said, That he was
become mud. ~ And the Scribes which were

i ie down from Jerusalem said. That he

hath Beelzebub: and that in the prince of
devils lie casteth out devils. aAnd after he
had called them together, he said to them in
parables. How cun Satan cast out Satan?
-' And if a kingdom be divided against itself,
that kingdom cannot stand. l5 And if a
house be divided against itself, that house
cannot stand. -"'And it Satan be risen against
himself, he is divided, and cannot stand, but
liatii an end. -7 Nobody can rifle the vessel
of the strong, being entered into his house,
unless he first bind the strong, and then
shall he rifle Ins house. -sAiuen I say to
you, that all sins shall be forgiven the sons
of men, and the blasphemies wherewith they
shall blaspheme. 2l But he that shall blas-
pheme against the Holy Ghost, he hath not
forgiveness for ever, but shall be guilty of an
eternal sin. ^ Because they said, He hath
an unclean spirit.

31 And there come his mother and brethren :
and standing without they sent unto him
calling him, :i-and the multitude sat about
him: and they say to him, Behold thy
mother and thy brethren without seek thee.
31And answering them, he said. Who is my
mother and my brethren? 3jAnd looking
about upon them which sat round about
him, he snilh. Behold my mother and my
brethren. x' For whosoever shall do the will
of God, he is my brother and my sister and
mother.

And again he began to teach at the sea-
side ; and a great multitude was gathered to-
gether unto him, so that he went up into a
boat, and sat in thesea, and all the multitude
about the sea was upon the land : ;and he
taught them in parables many things, and
said to them in his doctrine, 3llear ye:

Behold, the sower went forth to sow.
4 And while he soweth some fell by the way-
side, and the fowls of the air came, and did
eat it. "And othersome fell upon rocky
places where it had not much earth : and it
shot up immediately, because it had not
deepness of earth: fl and when the sun was
risen, it parched, and because it had not root,
it withered. 'And some fell among thorns :
and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it
yielded not fruit. sAnd some fell upon good
ground ; and it yielded fruit that grew im and
increased, and it brought forth, one thirty,
one sixty, and one an hundred.

'And he said. He that hath ears to hear,
let him hear. '"And when he was alone, the
Twelve that were with him, asked him the
parable. "And he said to them, To you it is
given to know the mystery of the kingdom of
God ; but tot hem that are without, all things
are done in parables -. '-that seeing they may
tee, and not see; and hearing they may hear,

audisscnt sui, exierunt tencre eum : dicebant enim :
Quoniam in furorem versus est. Et Scriba?, qui ab 22
lerosolymis descenderant, dicebant: Quoniam Beel-
zebub babet, et quia in principe drcmoniorum ejicit
da'tnonia. Et convocatis eis in parabolis dicebat illis: 23
Quomc-do potest satanas satanam ejicere? Et si reg- 24
num in se dividatur, non potest regnum illud stare.
Et si domus super semetipsam dispertiatur, non potest 25
domus ilia stare. Et si satanas consurrexerit in se- 26
metipsum, dispertitus est, et non poterit stare, scd

dicebant: Spiritum immundum babet.

Et veniunt mater ejus et fratres: et foris stantes3i
miserunt ad eum vocantes eum. Et sedebat circa cum 32
turba: et dicunt ei: Ecce mater tua et fratres tui foris
quaerunt te. Et respondens eis, ait: Qua? est mater 33
mea et fratres mei? Et circumspiciens eos, qui in 34
circuitu ejus scdebant, ait: Ecce mater mea, et fratres
mei. Qui enim fecerit voluntatem Dei, hie frater 35
meus, et soror mea, et mater est.

Et iterum ccepit docere ad mare: et congregata est 4
ad eum turba multa, ita ut navim ascendens sederet in
mari, et omnis turba circa mare super terrain erat: et 2
docebat eos in parabolis multa, et dicebat illis in doc-
trinasua: Audite: ecce exiit seminansad seminandum. 3

Et dum seminat, aliud cecidit circa viam, et vene- 4
runt volucres cceli, et comederunt illud. Aliud vero 5
cecidit super petrosa, ubi non habuit terrain multam;
et statim exortum est, quoniam non habebat altitudi-
nem terras: et quando exortus est sol, exSBStuavit: et 6
eo quod non habebat radioem, exaruit. Et aliud 7
cecidit in spinas; et ascenderunt spine, et suil'ocave-
runt illud, et fructum non dedit. Et aliud cecidit in 8
terrain bonam; et dabat fructum ascendentem et cres-
centem, et atlerebat unum triginta. iinuin sexaginta, et
uiuini centum.

Et dicebat: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat. 9
Et cum essct singularis, interrogaverunt eum hi, qui 10
cum eo erant doodecim, paraboiam. Et dicebat eu: 11
Vobifl datum est nosse mysterium regni Dei: illis
autem, qui foris sunt, in parabolis omnia fiunt: ut 12
videntee videant, et non videant: et audientes audiant,

et non intelligant : ne quando convertantur, et dimit-
1 3 tantur eis peccata. Et ait illis : Xescitis parabolam
I4hanc? et quornodo omnes parabolas cognoscetis? Qui

15 seminat, verbum seminat. Hi autem sunt, qui circa
viam, ubi seminatur verbum, et curu audierint, confes-
tira venit satanas, et aufert verbum, quod seminatum

16 est in cordibus eorum. Et hi sunt similiter, qui super
petrosa seminantur : qui cum audierint verbum, statim

17 cum gaudio accipiunt illud : et non habent radicem
in se, sed temporales sunt: deinde, orta tribulatione et
persecutione propter verbum, confestim scandalizantur.

18 Et alii sunt, qui in spinis seminantur: hi sunt, qui

19 verbum audiunt; et aerumnae sseculi, et deceptio divi-
tiarum, et circa reliqua concupiscentiae introeuntcs

20 suffocant verbum, et sine fructu efficitur. Et hi sunt,
qui super terrain bonam serainati sunt, qui audiunt
verbum, et suscipiunt, et fructificant, unum triginta,
unum sexaginta, et unum centum.

21 Et dicebat illis : Xumquid venit lucerna ut sub
modio ponatur, aut sub lecto? nonne ut super cande-

22 labrum ponatur? non est enim aliquid absconditum,
quod non manifestetur : nee factum est occultum, sed

23 ut in palam veniat. Si quis" habet aures audiendi,
audiat.

24 Et dicebat illis : Yidete quid audiatis. In qua
mensura mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis, et adjicietur

25 vobis. Qui enim habet, dabitur illi ; et qui non habet,
etium quod habet auferetur ab eo.

26 Et dicebat: Sic est regnum Dei, quemadmodum si
2"] homo jaciat sementem in terram. Et dormiat, et

trgat nocte et die, et semen germinet et increscat,
28 dum nescit ille. Ultro enim terra f'ructificat, primuin

herbam, deinde Bpicam, deinde plenum frumentum in

30 Et dicebat: Cui assimilabimus regnum I >< i ? aut cui

31 parabolas comparabimus illud? sicut granum sinapis,
quod c riatum fuerit in terra, minus est omnibus

and not understand: lest at any time they
should be converted and their sius be for-
given them. 13A;id lie suith to them, Do you
not know this parable? and how shall you
know all parables ? u He that soweth, sow-
eth the word. 15And they by the way side,
are these : where the word is sown, and when
they shall have heard, immediately cometh
Satan, and taketh away the word that was
sown in their hearts. 16And they likewise
that are sown upon the rocky places, are
these : who when they hear the word, imme-
diately with joy receive it ; '"and they have
not root in themselves, but are temporal :
afterward when tribulation is risen and per-
secution for the word, forthwith they are
scandalized. lsAnd other there be that are
sown among thorns: these are they that
hear the word, 19and the cares of the world
and the deceitfulness of riches, and con-
cupiscences about other things entering in
choke the word, and it is made fruitless.
;' And these are they that were sown upon
the good ground, which hear the word and
receive it, and yield fruit one thirty, .one
sixty, and one an hundred.

2,And he said to them, Cometh a candle to
be put under a bushel, or under a bed ? and
not to be put upon the candlestick? —For
there is nothing hid, which shall not be made
manifest : neither was anything made secret,
but that it shall come to light. '-^Jfauyman
have ears to hear, let him hear.

24And he said to them, See what you hear.
In what measure you mete, it shall be mea-
sured to you again, and more shall be given
to you. ^ For he that hath, to him shall be
given : and he that hath not, that also which
he hath shall be taken away from him.

^And he said, So is the kingdom of God :
as if a man cast seed into the earth, -"and
sleep, and rise up night and day, and tin' seed
Boring, and grow up while he knoweth not.
-1 I or the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit,

they take him so as he was in the boat:
and there were other boats with him, •'''And
there arose a great storm of wind, and the
waves beat into the boat, so that the boat
was filled. 3\And he was in the hinder part
of the boat Bleeping upon a pillow : and they
raise him, and say to him, Master, doth it
not pertain to thee that we perish? 39And
rising up he threatened the wind, and said to
the sea, Peaee, be still. And the wind ceased,
and there was made a great calm. ''"And he
said to them, Why are you fearful? neither
yet have you faith ? 41And they feared with
great fear: and they said one to another.
Who is this (thinkest thou) that both wind
and sea obey him?

And they came beyond the strait of the sea
into the country of the Gerasens. 2And
as he went out of the boat, immediately there
met him out of the sepulchres a man in an
unclean spirit, 3that had his dwelling in the
sepulchres; and neither with chains could any

man now bind

for being often bound

with fetters and chains, he had burst the
chains, and broken the letters; and nobody
could tame him: 'and he was always day
and night in the sepulchres and in the
mountains, crying and cutting himself with
stones. 6And seeing Jesus alar off, he ran
and adored him: 7 and crying with a great
voice, said, What to me and thee Jesus the
son of God most high? 1 adjure thee by
God that thou torment me not. 8For he
said unto him, Go out of the man thou un-
clean spirit. ,JAnd he asked him, What is
thy name? And he suit li to him, My name
is Legion: because we are many. '"And he
besought him much, that he would not ex-
pel him out of the country. "And there
was there about the mountain a great herd
of swine, feeding. "And the spirits besought
him, saying, Send us into the swine, that
we may enter into them. 'And Jesus im-
mediately granted unto them. And the un-
clean spirits going out, entered into tile
swine: and the herd with great violence was
carried headlong into the sea, about two
thousand, and were .stilled in the sea, uAnd
they that fed them, lied, and earned news
into the city and into the fields. And they
went forth to see what was done: a and
they come to Jesus, and they see him that
was vexed of the devil, sitting, clothed, and
well in his wits; and .they were afraid.
16 And they that had seen it, told them, in
what manner he had been dealt withal that
had the devil : and of the swine. ''"And they
began to desire him, that he would depart
trom their coasts. "And when he went up
into the boat, he that had been vexed of
the devil, began to beseech him that he
might be with him; "and lie admitted him
not, but saith to him, Go into thy house
to thine, and tell them how great things
the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had
mercy upon thee. "And he went his way,
and began to publish in Decapohs how
great things Jesus hail done to him: and all
marvelled.

21 And when Jesus had passed in boat

ita ut erat in navi : et alia? naves crant cum illo. Et 2>7
facta est procella magna venti, et fluctus mittebat in
navim, ita ut impleretur navis. Et erat ipse in puppi 38
super cervical donniens : et excitant cum, et mount
illi: Magister, non ad te pertinet, quia peritnus? Et 39
exsurgens comminatus est vento, et dixit mari: Tace,
obmutesce. Et cessavit ventus : et facta est tranquillitas
magna. Et ait illis: Quid timidi estis? necdum 40
habetis fidem? Et timuerunt tirnore magno, et dice-
bant ad alterutrum: Quis, putas, est iste, quia et
ventus et mare obediunt ei?

Et venerunt trans fretum maris in regionem Gerase- 5
norum. Et exeunti ei de navi, statitn occurrit de 2
monumentis homo in spiritu immundo. Qui domi- 3
cilium habebat in monumentis, et neque catenis jam
quisquam poterat eum ligare: quoniam same compedi- 4
bus et catenis vinctus, dirupissct catenas, et compedes
comminuisset, et nemo poterat eum domare. Et sem- 5
per die ac nocte in monumentis et in montibus erat,
damans, et concidens se lapidibus. Videns autem 6
Jesum a longe, cucurrit, et adoravit eum : et clamans 7
voce magna dixit: Quid mihi et tibi, Jesu fili Dei
altissimi? adjuro te per Deum, ne me torqueas. Dice- 8
bat enim illi : Exi, spiritus immunde ab nomine. Et 9
interrogabat cum: Quod tibi nomen est? Etdicitei:
Legio mihi nomen est, quia multi sum us. Et depre- 10
cabatur eum multuin, ne se expelleret extra regionem.
Erat autem ibi circa montem grex porcorum magnus, 1 1
pascens. Et deprecabantur cum spiritus, dicentes: 12
Mitte nos in porcos ut in cos introeamus. Et concessit 13
eis statim Jesus. Et exeuntes spiritus immundi
introierunt in porcos: et magno impctu grex prsecipi-
tatus est in mare ad duo millia, et suflbcati sunt in
mari. Qui autem pasccbant cos, fugerunt, et nuncia- 14
vcrunt in civitatem, ct in a^ros. Et eo-ressi sunt videre
quid csset factum: et veniunt ad Jesum : ct Yident 15
ilium, qui a damionio vexabatur, Bedentem vestitum.
et sans mentis, et timuerunt. Et aarraverunt illis, qui 16
viderant, qualiter factum cssct ei, qui dsemonium
habucrat, ct de porcis. Et rogare coeperunt cum 1U17
discederet de finibus corum. ('unique ascenderct 18
navim, coepit ilium deprecari, qui a dsemonio vcxatus
fuerat, ut esset cum illo. Et non admisit eum, sed ait 19
illi : Vade in domum tuam ad tuos, ct annuncia illis
quanta tibi Dominus fecerit, et miscrtus sit tui. Et 20
abut, et coepit pnedicare in Decapoli, quanta sibi
fecisset Jesus : ct omnes mirabantur.

Et cum transcendissct Jesus in navi rursum trans 21

fretum, convenit turba multa ad eum, et erat circa

22 mare. Et venit quidara de archisynagogis nomine

23 Jairus : et videns eum, procidit ad pedes ejus. Et
deprecabatur eum multum, dicens: Quoniam filia mea
in extremis est, Veni, impone manum super earn, ut

24 salva sit, et vivat. Et abiit cum illo, et sequebatur
eum turba multa, et comprimebant eum.

25 Et mulier, quae erat in profluvio sanguinis annis

26 duodecim. Et fuerat multa perpessa a compluribus
medicis : et erogaverat omnia sua, nee quidquam

27 profecerat, sed magis deterius habebat: Cum audisset
de Jesu, venit in turba retro, et tetigit vestimentum

28 ejus: dicebat enim: Quia si vel vestimentum ejus

29 tetigero, salva ero. Et confestim siccatus est fons san-
guinis ejus: et sensit corpore quia sanata esset a plaga.

30 Et statim Jesus in semetipso cognoscens virtutem,
quae exierat de illo, con versus ad turbam, aiebat: Quis

31 tetigit vesiimenta mea? Et dicebant ei discipuli sui:
Vides turbam comprimentcm te, et dicis: Quis me

32 tetigit? Et circumspiciebat videre earn, quae hoc
^^ fecerat. Mulier vero timens et tremens, sciens quod

factum esset in se, venit et procidit ante eum, et dixit

34 ei omnem veritatem. Ille autem dixit ei: Filia, fides
tua te salvam fecit: vade in pace, et esto sana a plaga
tua.

35 Adhuc eo loquente veniunt ab archisynagogo, di-
centes: Quia filia tua mortua est: quid ultra vexas

36 Magistrum? Jesus autem audito verbo, quod dice-
batur, ait archisynagogo: Noli timere: tantummodo

37 ciede. Et non admisit quemquam, se sequi, nisi

38 Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannein fratrem Jacobi. Et
veniunt in domum archisynagogi, et videt tumultum,

39 et flentes, et ejulantes multum. Et ingressus, ait i His r
Quid turbamini, et plorati.-? paella non est mortua,

again over the strait, a great multitude
assembled together unto him, and he was
about the sea. —And there cometh one of

23 and besought him much, saying, That my
daughter is at the point of death, come, im-
pose thy hands upon her, that she may be
safe and live. '-''And he went with him, and
a great multitude followed him, and they
thronged him.

^And a woman which was in an issue of
blood twelve years, Mand had suffered many
things of many Physicians, and had bestowed
all that she had, neither was anything the
better, but was rather worse: 2' when she
had heard of Jesus, she came in the press be-
hind him, and touched his garment; ->sfor
she said, That if 1 shall touch but his gar-
ment, 1 shall be safe. BAnd fort li with the
fountain of her blood was dried: and she felt
in her body that she was healed of the inn lady.
"And immediately Jesus knowing in him-
self the virtue that had proceeded from him,
turning to the multitude, said. Who hath
touched my garments ? a'And his Disciples
said to him, Thou seest the multitude
thronging thee, and sayest thou. Who hath
touched me? aAnd he looked about to see
her that had done this. & lint the woman,
fearing and trembling, knowing what was
done in her, came and fell down before him,
and told him all the truth. :,4And he said to
her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee safe;
go in peace, and be whole of thy malady.

a'As he was yet speaking, they come to the
Arch-synagogue, saying, That thy daughter
is dead: why dost thou trouble the Master
any further? • But Jesus having heard the
word that was spoken, sailh to the Arch-
synagogue, Fear not : only believe. 3'"And ho
admitted not any man to follow him, but
Peter and James and John the brother of
James. '''And they came to the Arehsyna-
gogue's house, and he seeth a tumult, and folk
weeping and wailing much. ;"And going in,
he saitli to them. Why make you this ado
and weep? the wench is not dead, but
sleepelh. "And they derided him. But he
having put forth all, taketh the lather and
the mother of the wench, and them that*

wench Was lying. "And holding the wench's

the son of Marie, the brother of ^ James and
Joseph and .lade ami Simon? Why, are not
also bis sisters here with us ? And they were
scandalized in him. *And Jesus said to
them, That there is not a Prophet without
honour, but in his own country, and in his
own house, and in his own kindred. "And
he could not do any miracle there, but only
cured a few that were sick, imposing his
hands, 6and he marvelled because of their
incredulity, and he went about the towns in
circuit teaching.

7 And he called the Twelve : and began to
send them two and two, and gave them
power over unclean spirits. "And he com-
manded them that they should take nothing
for the way, but a rod only ; not scrip, not
bread, nor money in their purse, 'but shod
with sandals, and that they should not put
on two coats. "'And he said to them,
Whithersoever you shall enter into an house,
there tarry till you depart thence; "and
whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear
you, going forth from thence shake oil' the
dust from your feet for a testimony to them.
'-And going forth they preached that they
should do penance: "and they cast out
many devils, and anointed with oil many
sick, and healed them.

14 And king ITerod heard (for his name was
made manifest), and lie said, That John the
Baptist is risen again from the dead, and
therefore virtues work in him. BAnd others
said, That it is Elias. But others said. That
it is a Prophet, as one of the Prophets.
"Which Eerod hearing, said, John whom I
beheaded, he is risen again from the dead.

17 For the said TTerod sent and apprehended
John, and hound him in prison for Eerodias
the wife of Philippe his brother, because he
had married her. ls For John said to Herod,
It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's
wife. "And Eerodias lay in wait for him:
and was desirous to kill him, and could not.
20 For Eerod feared John, knowing him to
he a just and holy man; and he kept him,
and by hearing him did many things: and
he heard him gladly. '-''And when a con-
venient day was fallen, Eerod made the
supper of his birthday to the Princes and the
Tribunes and the chief of Galilee. "And
when the daughter of the same Eerodias

came in, and had danced, and pleased Herod,

King said to the damsel. Ask of me what

man, commanded that his head should be
brought in a platter. isAnd he beheaded
him in the prison, and brought his head in a
platter, and gave it to the damsel : and the
damsel gave it to her mother. ffl Which his
disciples hearing, came and took his body ;
and they put it in a monument.

^And the Apostles gathering together
unto Jesus, made relation to him of all
things that they had done and taught. 3And
he said to them, Come apart into the desert
place, and rest a little. For there were that
came and went, many ; and they had uot bo
much as space to eat. ^-And going up into
the boat, they went into a desert place apart.
^And they saw them going away, and many
knew; and they ran flocking thither on foot
from all cities, and prevented them.

3,And going forth, Jesus saw a great multi-
tude ; and he had compasion on them, because
they were as sheep not having a shepherd,
and he began to teach them many things.
88 And when the day was now far spent, his
Disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert
place, and the hour is now past: M dismiss
them, that going out into the next villages
and towns, they may buy themselves meats
to eat. :<7And he answering said, Give ye
them to eat. And they said to him, Let us
go and buy bread for two hundred pence;
and we will give them to eat. i8And he saith
to them, How many loaves have you? go and
see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and
two fishes. 39And he commanded them that
they should make all sit down, by companies
upon the green grass. '"'And they sat down
in ranks by hundreds and fifties. '"And
when he had taken the five loaves and the
two .fishes, looking up unto heaven, he
blessed, ana brake the loaves, and gave to his
Disciples to set before them: and the two
fishes he divided to all. '•'-And all did eat,
and bad their fill. 4:iAnd they took up the
leavings, twelve full baskets of fragments:
and of the fishes. ■"And tliey tliat did eat,
were five thousand men. ''And immediately
he compelled his Disciples to go up into the
boat, that they might ko before him beyond,

dismiss the people.

were Far more astonied within themselves;
Mfor t hey understood not concerning the
loaves j for their heart was blinded.

:'3And when they had passed over, they
came into the land of Genezareth, and set to
the shore. 54And when they were gone out
of the boat, incontinent they knew him :
■"''and running through that whole country,
they began to carry about in couches those
that were ill at ease, where they heard he
was. "''And whit hersoever lie entered into
towns, or into villages or cities, they laid t he
sick in the streets, and besought him that
they might touch but the hem of hia gar-
ment: and as many as touched him, Here
made whole.

And there assembled together unto him
the Pharisees and certain of the Scribes,
coming from Jerusalem. -And when they
had seen certain of his disciples eat bread
with common hands, that is, not washed,
they blamed them. :i For the Pharisees and
all the Jews, unless they often wash their
hands, eat not, holding the tradition of the
Ancients : 4and from the market, unless they
be washed, they eat not: and many other
things there be that were delivered unto
them to' observe; the washing of cups and
cruses, and of brasen vessels and beds.
•"'And the Pharisees and Scribes asked him,
M'hy do not thy disciples walk according to
the tradition of the Ancients, but they eat
bread with common hands? 6 Hut he an-
swering, said to them, Well did Ksay Pro-
phesy of you hypocrites, as it is written,
This people honoure/h me with their lips,
but /heir heart is far from me: ^ and in
ruin do they worship me, teaching doctrines,
precepts <f men. i For leaving the com-
mandment of God, you hold the traditions
of men, the washings of cruses and cups,
and many other things you do like to these.
■'And he said to them, Well do you frustrate
the precept of God, that you may observe
your own tradition. '" For .Moyses said.
Honour thij father and thy mother; and
lie that shall curse fa/her or mother, dying
let him die. " Hut you say, If a man Bay to
lather or mother, Corban, (which is a gift)
whatsoever proceedet h from me, shall profit
thee : '-and further you suffer him not to do
ought for his father or mother, "defeating
the word of God for your own tradition
which you have given forth; and many other
things of this sort you do.

"And calling again the multitude unto
him, he said to them, Hearmeall you, and
understand. ''Nothing is without a man
entering into him, that can detile him; but
the things that proceed from a man, those
are they that make a man common. "'If
any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
'■"And when he was entered into the house
from the multitude, his Disoiplea asked him
the parable, l8And he suit h to them, So are

you also unskilful? Understand you not
that every thing from without, entering into
a man, cannot make him common : 19 because

eum, ut vel fimbriam vestimenti ejus tangerent, et

Et conveniunt ad eum Pharissei, et quidarn de Scribis, 7
venientes ab Ierosolyinis. Et cum vidissent quosdam 2
ex discipulis ejus communibus manibus, id est non
lotis, manducare panes, vituperaverunt. Pharissei 3
enim, et omnes Judasi, nisi crebro laverint manus, non
manducant, tenentes traditionem seniorum : et a foro 4
nisi baptizentur, non comedunt: et alia multa sunt,
qiue tradita sunt illis servare, baptismata calicum, et
urceorum, et ajramentorum, et lectorum : et interroga- 5
bant eum Pharisoei et Scribas: Quare discipuli tui non
ambulant juxta traditionem seniorum, sed communibus
manibus manducant panem ? At ille respondens, dixit 6
eis : Bene propbetavit Isaias de vobis hypocritis, sicut
scriptum est: Populushic labiis me lionorat, cor autem
eorum longe est a me. In vanum autem me colunt, 7
docentes doctrinas et pnecepta hominum. Relinquen- 8
tes enim mandatum Dei, tenctis traditionem hominum,

Moyses enim dixit : Honora patrem tuum et matrcm 10

22 procedunt, adulteria, fornicationes, homicidia, furta,
avaritiae, nequitiae, dolus, impudicitiaa, oculus malus,

intus procedunt, et communicant hominem.

24 Et inde surgens abiit in fines Tyri et Sidonis: et
ingressus domum, neminem voluit scire, et non potuit

25 latere. Mulier enim statim ut audivit de eo, cujus
filia habebat spiritum immundum, intravit, et procidit

26 ad pedes ejus. Erat enim mulier Gentilis, Syropbcenissa
genere. Et rogabat eum ut daemonium ejiceret de

27 filia. ejus. Qui dixit illi: Sine prius saturari filios:
non est enim bonum sumere panem filiorum, et mittere

28 canibus. At ilia respondit, et dixit illi: Utique,
Domine, nam et catelli comedunt sub mensa de micia

29 puerorum. Et ait illi: Propter nunc sermonem vade,

30 exiit daemonium a filia tua. Et cum abiisset domum
suam, invenit puellam jacentem supra lectum, et
daemonium exiisse.

31 Et iterum exiens de finibus Tyri, venit per Sidonem

32 ad Mare Galilaeae inter medios fines Decapoleos. Et
adducunt ei surdum et mutum, et deprecabantur eum,

33 ut imponat illi manum. Et apprehendens eum de turba
seorsum, misit digitos suos in auriculas ejus: et exspuens,

34 tctigit linguam ejus: et suspicions in ccelum, ingemuit,

35 et ait illi: Ephpnetha, quod est adaperire. Et statim

it entereth not into his heart, but goeth into
the belly, and is cast out into the privy,
purging all the meals? B But he said that
the things which come forth from a man,
they make a man common. ;i For from
within out of the heart of men proceed evil
cogitations, adulteries, fornications, murders,
"thefts, avarices, wickedness, guile, impu-
dicities, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, fool-
ishness. BA11 theseevils proceed from within,
and make a man common.

24 And rising from thence he went into the
coasts of Tyre and Sidon; and entering into
a house, he would that no man should know,
and he could not be hid. *• For a woman
immediately as she heard of him, whose
daughter had an unclean spirit, entered in,
and fell down at his feet. -' For the woman
was a Gentile, a Syroplmcuician born. And
she besought him that he would cast forth
the devil out of her daughter. 'Who said
to her, Suffer first the children to be filled ;
for it is not good to take the children's
bread, and cast it to the dogs. aBut she an-
swered, and said to him, Yea Lord; for the
whelps also eat under the table of the crumbs
of the children. wAnd he said to her, For
this saying go thy way, the devil is gone out
of thy daughter. 3"And when she was de-
parted into her house, she found the maid
lying upon the bed, and the devil gone out.

31 And again going out of the coasts of Tyre,
lie came by Sidon to the sea of Galilee
through the midst of the coasts of Deeapolis.
•-And they bring to him one deaf and dumb;
and they besought him that he would im-
pose his hand upon him. '"And taking him
from the multitude apart, he put his fingers
into his ears; and spitting, touched his
tongue: 'and looking up unto heaven, he
groaned, and said to him, TSphphetha, which
IS, Be thou opened. "And immediately his
ears were opened, and the string of his tongue
was loosed, and he spake riL'lit. "And lie
commanded them not to tell anybody. But
how much he commanded them, so much
the more a great deal did they pul lisll it,
~> and so much the more did I hey wonder,
■aying, lie hath done all things well: he
hath made both the deaf to hear, anil the
dumb to speak.

In those days again when there wai a
great multitude, and had nol whal to eal .
calling bia Disciples together, he saith to
them, -I have compassion upon the multi-

and were filled ; and they took up that which
was left of the fragments, seven maunds.
,JAnd they that had eaten were about four
thousand; and lie dismissed them.

10 And immediately going up into the boat
with his Disciples, he came into the quarters
of Dalmanutha. ''And the Pharisees went
forth, and began to question with him, ask-
ing of him a sign from heaven: tempting him.
'-And groaning in spirit, he saith, Why doth
this generation ask a sign? Amen I say to
you, If a sign shall be given to this genera-
tion. ,3And leaving them, he went up again
into the boat, and passed beyond the strait.

''And they forgot to take bread ; and they
bad but one loaf with them in the boat.
15And he commanded them, saying, Look
•well and beware of the leaven of the Phari-
sees, and the leaven of Herod. ,6And they
reasoned among themselves, saying, Because
we have not bread. 1? Which Jesus knowing,
saith to them, Why do you reason, because
you have not bread? do you not yet know
nor understand? yet have ye your heart
blinded? l3 Having eyes, see you not? and

savourest not the tilings that are of God, but
that are of men. 34And calling the multi-
tude together with his Disciples, he said to
them, If any man will follow me, let him
deny himself, and take up his cross, and
follow me. M For he that will save his life,
shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life
for me and the Gospel, shall save it. ^For
what shall it profit a man, if he gain the
whole world, and suffer damage of his soul ?

his soul ? ** For he that shall be ashamed of
me, and of my words in this adulterous and
sinful generation, the Son of man also will be
ashamed of him, when he shall come in the
glory.of his father with the holy Angels.

And he said to them, Amen I say to you,
that there be some of them that stand here,
which shall not taste of death, until they
see the kingdom of God coming in power.

James and John : and bringeth them alone
into a high mountain apart, and was trans-
figured before them. "And his garments
were made glistering and white exceedingly
as snow, the like whereof a fuller cannot

appeared to them Elias with Moyses: and
they were talking with Jesus. 6And Peter

no man any more but Jesus only with them.

anything, help us, having compassion on us.

believeth. 2,And incontinent the father of
the boy crying out, with tears said, [ do

scandalize one of these little ones believing
in me; it is good for him rather if a millstone
were put about his neck, and he were cast
into the sea. °And it' thy hand scandalize
thee, cut it off; it is good for thee to enter
into life, maimed, than having two hands
to go into hell, into the fire unquenchable,
44 where their worm dieth not, and the lire
quencheth not. "And if thy foot scan-
dalize thee, chop it off; it is good for t hoc
to enter into life everlasting, lame, rather
than having two feet, to be cast into the hell
of unquenchable fire, * where their worm
dieth not, and the fire quencheth not. 4'And
if thine eye scandalize thee, cast it out ; it is
good for thee with one eye to enter into the
kingdom of God, rather than having two
eves, to be cast into the hell of fire, 4l where
their worm dieth not, and the fire quencheth
not. 49For every one shall be salted with
fire: and every victim shall be sailed with
salt. 5uSalt is good; but if the salt shall be
unseasoned, wherewith will you season it f
Have salt in you, and have peace among

he was accustomed, again lie taught them.

them, What did Moyses command you?
4 Who said, Moyses permitted to write a bill
of divorce, and to dismiss her. 6To whom
Jesus answering, said, For the hardness of
your heart he wrote you this precept; "but
from the beginning of the creation God made
them male and female. 7 For this cause, man
shall leave liis father and mother, and shall

before him asked him, Good Master, what
shall I do that I may receive life everlasting?

me good ? None is good but one, God.
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Com-
mit not adultery. Kill not. Steal not, Bear not
false witness, do no frarid, Honour thy

said to him. Master, all these things 1 have
observed from my youth. 2:And Jesus be-
holding him, loved him, and said to him,
One thing is wanting unto thee: go, sell
whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven : and
come, follow me. --'Who being stricken sad
at the word, went away sorrowful ; for he had
many possessions. :3And Jesus looking
about, sait.li to his Disciples, How hardly
shall they that have money, enter into the
kingdom of God! MAnd the Disciples were
astonied at his words. But Jesus again
answering, saith to them, Children, how hard
it is for them that trust in money, to enter
into the kingdom of God ! a It is easier for
a camel to pass through a needle's eye, than
for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of
God. -6Who marvelled more, saying to
themselves, And who can be saved? 2'"And
Jesus beholding them, saith, With men it is
impossible; but not with God; forall things
are possible with God. -Wild Peter began
to say unto him, Behold, we have left all
things, and have followed thee. 2J Jesus an-
swering, said, Amen 1 say to you, there is no
man which hath left house, or brethren, or
sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or
lands, for mo and for the Gospel, 3U that shall
not receive an hundred times so much now
in this time; houses, and brethren, and
sisters, and mothers.and children, and lands,

shall be last ; and the last, first.

3-And they were in the way going up to
Jerusalem : and Jesus went before them, and
they were astonied; and following, were
afraid. And taking again the Twelve, he
began to tell them the things that should
beta] him. ::i That, behold we go up to Jeru-
salem, and the .Son of man shall he betrayed

to the chief Priests, and to the Scribes and
Ancients, and they shall condemn him to
death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles,

and scourge him, and kill him, and the third
day he shall rise again.

the sons of Zebcdee, saying, Master, we will

ego bibo, bibetis; et baptismo, quo ego baptizor, bapti-

40 zabiraini: sedere autem ad dexteram meam, vel ad
sinistram, non est meum dare vobis, sed quibus paratum

41 est. Et audientes decern coeperunt indignari de Jacobo,

42 et Joanne. Jesus autem vocans eos, ait illis: Scitis
quia hi, qui videntur principari gentibus, dominantur
eis: et principes eorum potestatem habent ipsorum.

43 Non ita est autem in vobis, sed quicumque voluerit fieri

44 major, erit vester minister. Et quicumque voluerit in

45 vobis primus esse, erit omnium servus. Nam et Filius
hominis non venit ut ministraretur ei, sed ut minis-
traret, et daret animam suam redemptionem pro multis.

46 Et veniunt Jericho: et proficiscente eo de Jericho, et
discipulis ejus, et plurima multitudine, filius Timasi

47 Bartimaeus caecus, sedebat juxta viam mendicans. Qui
cum audisset quia Jesus Xazarenus est, ccepit clamare,

48 et dicere : Jesu fill David, miserere mei. Et commina-
bantur ei multi ut taceret. At ille multo magis clamabat :

49 Fili David, miserere mei. Et stans Jesus prsecepit ilium
vocari. Et vocant caecum dicentes ei: Animaequior

50esto: surge, vocat te. Qui projecto vestimento suo

5 1 exiliens, venit ad eum. Et respondens Jesus dixit
ill L - Quid tibi vis faciam? Caecus autem dixit ei : Rab-

52 boni, ut videam. Jesus autem ait illi: Vade, fides tua
te salvum fecit. Et confestim vidit, et sequebatur eum
in via.

11 Et cum appropinquarent Ierosolymae, et Bethaniae
ad montem Olivarum, mittit duos ex discipulis suis,

2 et ait illis: Ite in castellum, quod contra vos est, et sta-

to him, We can. And Jesus said to tliem,
The cup indeed which I drink, you shall
drink ; and with the baptism wherewith I
am baptized, shall you be baptized : ~° but
to sit on my right hand or on my left, is not
mine to give unto you, but to whom it is
prepared. 41And the ten hearing, began to
be displeased at James and John. 4-Aud
Jesus calling them, saith to them, You
know that they which seem to rule over the
gentiles, overrule them ; and their Princes
have power over them. 43But it is not so
in you ; but whosoever will be greater, shall
be your minister : 4I and whosoever will be
first among you, shall be the servant of all.
45 For the Son of man also is not come to
be ministered unto, but to minister, and to
give his life a redemption for many.

'"'And they come to Jericho: and when
he departed from Jericho, and his Disciples,
and a very great multitude, the son of Ti-
mseus, Bar-timseus the_ blind man, sat by
the wayside begging. 4i"Who when he had
heard that it is Jesus of Nazareth, he began
to cry, and to say, Jesus, son of David, have
mercy upon me. 43And many threatened
him, to hold his peace; but he cried much
more, Son of David, have mercy upon me.
49 And Jesus standing still commanded him to
be called. And they call the blind man,
saying to him, Be of better comfort, arise,
he calleth thee. b" Who casting off his gar-
ment, leapt up, and came to him. 61And
Jesus answering, said to him, What wilt thou
that I do unto thee? And the blind man
said to him, Rabboni, that I may see. 6'-And
Jesus said to him, Go thy ways, thy faith
hath made thee safe. And forthwith he
saw, and followed him in the way.

And when they came nigh unto Jerusalem
and Bethania to Mount-olivet, he sendelli
two of his Disciples, -and saith to them, Go
into the town that is against you, and im-
mediately entering in thither, you shall find
a colt tied, upon which no man yet hath
sitten ; loose him, and bring him. 'Ami il
any man shall say to you, What do you?

going their ways, they found tin' colt tied

two ways: and they loose him. ■'Ami certain

of them that stood there, said to them.

to tbem as JeSUI had commanded them:

'-And the next day when they departed
from Bethania, lie was an hungred. uAnd
when lie had Been afar off a fig-tree having
Leaves, lie came if happily ho could find any-
thing on it. And when he was come to it,
he found nothing hut leaves, for it was not
the time for figs. 1,And answering he said
to it, Now no man eat fruit of thee any more
for ever. And his Disciples heard it. 15And
they come to Jerusalem.

And when lie wa9 entered into the tem-
ple, he began to cast out them that sold and
Bought in the temple, and the tables of the
bankers, and the chairs of them that sold
pigeons he overthrew; l6and he suffered
not that any man should carry a vessel
through the temple: '''and he taught, saying
to them, Is it not written, That my house
shall be called the house of prayer to all
nations ! But you hare made it a den of
thieves. u Which when the chief Priests
and the Scribes had heard, they sought how
they might destroy him; for they were afraid
of him, because the whole multitude was in
admiration upon his doctrine, 19 And when
evening was come, be went forth out of the
city.

'-"And when they passed by in the morning,
they saw the fig-tree withered from the roots.
-'And Peter remembering, said to him,
Rabbi, behold the fig-tree that thou didst
curse, is withered. --And Jesus answering
saith to them, Have faith of God. aAmeri
I say to you, that whosoever shall say to
this mountain, Be taken up and be cast into
the sea, and shall not stagger in his heart,
but believe (hat whatsoever he saith, shall
be done: it shall be done unto him. :4 There-
fore 1 suy to you, all things whatsoever you
ask, praying, believe that you shall receive,
and they shall come unto you. -'And when
you shall stand to pray, forgive if you have
ought against any man: thai also your father
which is in heaven, may forgive you your
sins. -''If so he that you will not forgive,
neither will your father that is in heaven,
forgive you your sins. -'"And they comeagain
to Jerusalem.

And when he walked in the temple, there
come to him the chief Priests and the
Scribes and the Ancients, -sand they say to
him, In what power doest thou these things?
and who hath given thee this power, that
thou shouldest do these' things? -'And
Jesus answering, Baid to them, I also will
ask you one word, and answer you me: and
1 will tell you in what power 1 do these
things. "The baptism of John, was it from
heaven, or from men? answer me. nBut
they thought with themselves, saving, If we
say, From heaven; he will say, Why then
did you not believe him? :r If we say. From
men; they feared the people: for all accounted
John that he was indeed a Prophet. Lnd

they answering, say to Jesus, \\e know not.
And Jesus answering saith to them, Neit her
do I tell you in what power 1 do these
things.

And he began to speak to them in para-
bles. A man planted a vineyard, and made
a hedge ubout it, and digged a trough, and

Et cum mane transirent viderunt ficum aridam fac- 20
tarn a radicibus. Et recordatus Petrus, dixit ei: Rabbi, 21
ecce ficus, cui maledixisti, aruit. Et respondens Jesus 22
ait illis: Habete fidem Dei. Amen dico vobis, quia 23

2 Et misit ad agricolas in tempore servum ut ab agrieolis

3 aceiperet de fructu vineae. Qui apprebensum eum ceci-

4 derunt, et dimiserunt vacuum. Et iterum misit ad illos
alium servum : et ilium in capite vulneraverunt, et

5 contumeliis affecerunt. Et rursum alium misit, et ilium
occiderunt: et plures alios, quosdam cgedentes, alios

6 vero occidentes. Adhuc ergo unum habens filium cba-

adinvicem: Hicestheres: venite, occidamus eum ; et

built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen :
and went forth into a strange country. -And
he sent to the husbandmen in season a ser-
vant, to receive of the husbandmen, of the
fruit of the vineyard. 3 Who apprehending
him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
4Andagain he sent to them another servant:
and him they wounded in the head, and used
him reproachfully. 5And again he sent
another, and him they killed 1 and many
other, beating certain, and killing others.
6 Therefore having yet one sou most dear,
him also he sent unto them last, saying,
That they will revereuce my son. 7 But the
husbandmen said one to another, This is the
heir ; come, let us kill him : and the inherit-
ance shall beour's. sAnd apprehending him,
they killed him, and cast him forth out of
the vineyard. 9What therefore will the
lord of the vineyard do ? He will come and
destroy the husbandmen, and will give the
vineyard to others. Ul Neither have you
read this scripture, The stone which 'lite
builders rejected, the same u<s made the head
of the corner. nBi/ our Lord was this done,
and it is marvellous in our eyes I ,sAnd
they sought to lay hands on him, and they
feared the multitude; for they knew that be
spake this parable to them. And leaving
him they went their way.

13 And they send to him certain of the Pha-
risees and of the Herodians, that they should
entrap him in his word. 14Who coming, say
to him, Blaster, we know that thou art a true
speaker, and carest not for any man: for
thoudoest not look upon the person of men,
but teachest the way of God in truth; is it
lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or shall we
not give it ? '"' Who knowing their subtlety,
said to them, Why tempt you me? bring me
a penny that 1 may see it. ,6But they
brought it him. And be saitli to them,
Whose is this image, mid inscription? They
say to him, Cassars. 'oAnd Jesus answering,
said to them. Render therefore the things
that are Omar's, to Ceeear; and that are
God's, to God. And they marvelled at him.

'"And there came to him the Saddi is,

the dead, but of the living. You therefore
are much, deceived.

2^And there came one of the Scribes that
had heard them questioning, and seeing that
he had well answered them, asked him which
was the first commandment of ail. -9And
Jesus answered him. That, the first com-
mandment of all is, Hear Israel: the Lord
thy God, is one God. MAnd thou shalt love
the Lord thy God from thy whole heart,
and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole
■mind, and with thy whole power. This is
the lirst commandment. ;llAnd the second
is like to it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself. Another commandment greater
than these there is not. •'-And the Scribe said
to him, Well, Master, thou hast said in
truth, that there is one God, and there is
none other besides him. -"And that he
be loved from the whole heart, and with the
whole understanding, and with the whole
soul, and with the whole strength: and to
love his neighbour as himself is a greater
thing than all holocausts and sacrifices.
3,And Jesus seeing that he had answered
wisely, said to him, Thou art not far from
the kingdom of God. And no man now durst
ask him.

:i'And Jesus answering, said, teaching in
the temple, IIow do t lie Scribes say, that
Christ is the son of David? m For David
himself saith in the holy Ghost : Our Lord
said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until
I /nit thine enemies- the footstool of thy feet.
:,<" David therefore himself calleth him Lord,
and whence is lie his son? And a great
multitude heard him gladly.

Lnd lie said to them in his doctrine,
Take heed of the Scribes that will walk in
lom,' robes, and be saluted in the market-
place, Band sit in the first chairs in the
Synagogues, and love the highest places at
suppers: "which devour widows' houses
under the pretence of long prayer: these
shall receive larger judgment.

"And Jesus sitting over against the trea-
sury, beheld how the multitude did oast
money into the treasury, and many rich
men did east in much. '-' And when there
oame a certain poor widow, she east in
two mites, which is a fart lung. ''And call-
ing his Disciples together, lie saith to them.
Amen 1 say to you, that this poor widow
hath east in move t hail all that have cast into
the treasury. " For all they of their abun-
dance have cast in ; but she. of her penary,
hath cast in all that she had, her whole
living.

And when he went out of the temple, one
of his DtSCiplea saith to him, Master, behold
what manner of stones, and what kind of

buildings. '-And Jesus answering, said to

him, Seest thou all these great buildings?
There shall not be left a stone upon a stoue,
that shall not be destroyed.

libro Moysi, super rubum quomoao dixcrit illi Deus,
inquiens: Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et
Deus Jacob? Non est Deus mortuorum, sed vivorum. 27
Vos ergo multum erratis.

Et accessit unus de Scribis, qui audierat illos con- 28
quirentes, et videns quoniam bene illis respondent,
interrogavit eum quod esset primum omnium manda-
tum. Jesus autem respondit ei : Quia primum omnium 29
mandatum est: Audi, Israel, Dominus Deus tuus, Deus
unus est: et diliges Dominura Deum tuum ex toto 30
corde tuo, et ex tota anima tua, et ex tota mente tua, et
ex tota virtute tua. Hos est primum mandatum. Secun- 3 1
dum autem simile est illi : Diliges proximum tuum tam-
quam teipsum. Majus horum aliud mandatum non est.
Etait illi Scriba: Bene Magister, in veritate dixisti quia 32
unus est Deus,et non est alius praeter eum. Et ut diligatur t,^
ex toto corde, et ex toto intellectu, et ex tota anima, ct
ex tota fortitudine: et diligere proximum tamquam
seipsum, majus est omnibus holocautomatibus et sacri-
ficiis. Jesus autem videns quod sapienter respondisset, 34
dixit illi: Non es longe a regno Dei. Et nemo jam
audebat eum interrogare.

Et respondens Jesus dicebat, docens in templo: 35
Quomodo dicunt Scribe Christum filium esse David?
Ipse enim David dicit in Spiritu sancto: Dixit Domi- 36
nus Domino meo, sede a dextris meis, donee ponam
inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum. Ipse ergo 37
David dicit eum Dominum, ct unde est filius ejus?
Et multa turba eum libentcr audivit.

Et dicebat eis in doctrina sua: Cavete a Scribis, qui 38
volunt in stolis ambulare,ct salutari in foro. Et in primis 39
cathedris sedere in synagogis, et primos discubitus in
cocnis: Qui devorant domos viduarum sub obtentu pro- 40
lixa^ orationis: hi accipient prolixius judicium.

Et sedens Jesus contro gazophylaciutn. aspiciebat 41
quomodo turba jactaret tes in gazophylacium. et multi
divites jactabant multa. Cum venisset autem vidua 42
una pauper, misit duo minuta, quod est quadrans. Et 43
convocans discipulos sues, ait illis: Amen dico vobis,
quoniam vidua ha^c pauper plus omnibus misit, qui
miserunt in gazophvlacium. Onmes enim ex eo, quod 44
abundabat illis, miserunt: hsec vero de penuria sua
omnia quae habuit misit, totum victum suum.

Et cum egrederetur de templo, ait illi unus ex dis- 13
cipulia suis: Magister. aspiee quales lapides, et quales
Structure. Et respondens Jesus, ait illi: Vides has 2
omnesmagnassedificationes? Non reliuquetur lapis super
lapidem, qui non destruatur.

come forth, you know that summer is very
nigh; 3so you also when you shall see these
things come to pass, know ye that it is very
nigh, at the doors. ^Amen I say to you,
that this generation shall not pass until all
these things be done. 3l Heaven and earth
shall pass, but my words shall not pass.

3- But of that day or hour no man knoweth,
neither the Angels in heaven, nor the Son,
but the Father. ^Take heed, watch, and
pray; for you know not when the time is.
31 Even as a man who being gone into a
strange country, left his house, and gave his
servants authority over each work, and com-
manded the porter to watch. 3' Watch ye
therefore (for you know not when the lord
of the house coineth ; at even, or at mid-
night, or at the cock-crowing, or in the
morning), ^ lest coming upon a sudden, he
find you sleeping. 37And that which I say
to you, I say to all, Watch.

And the Pasche was and the Azymes after
two days: and the chief Priests and the
Scribes sought how they might by some wile
lay hands on him, and kill him. 2 For they
said, Not on the festival day, lest there
might be a tumult of the people.

3 And when he was at Bethania in the
house of Simon the Leper, and sat at meat,
there came a woman having an alabaster-
box of ointment, of precious spike-nard :
and breaking the alabaster-box, she poured
it out upon his head. 4 But there were cer-
tain that had indignation within themselves,
and said, Whereto is this waste of the oint-
ment made? s For this ointment might have
been sold for more than three hundred
pence, and given to the poor. And they
murmured against her. "But Jesus said,
Let her alone, why do you molest her ? she
hath wrought a good work upon me. 7 For
the poor you have always with you, and
when you will, you may do them good : but
me you have not always. NThat which she
had, she bath done : she hath prevented to
anoint, my body to the burial. 9Amen |I
say to you, Wheresoever this Gospel shall be
preached in the whole world, that also which
she hath done, shall be told for a memory of
her.

10And Judas Iseariot, one of the Twelve,
went his way to the chief Priests, for to
betray him to them. " Who hearing it, were
glad: and they promised him that they
would give him money. And he sought how
ho might betray him conveniently.

'-'And the first day of the Azymes when
they sacrificed the Pasohe, the Disciples say
to him, Whither wilt thou that we go, and
prepare for thee to eat the Pasche P "And he
Bendeth two of his Disciples, and ■aith to
them. Go ye into the city; and there shall
meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water,

De die autem illo vel hora nemo scit, neque angeli 32

orate : nescitis enim quando tempus sit. Sicut homo, 34
qui peregre profectus reliquit domum suam, et dedit
servis suis potestatem cuj usque operis, et janitori pneccpit
ut vigilet. Vigilate ergo, (nescitis enim quando domi- 35

Vigilate.

Erat autem Pascha et Azyma post biduum : et 14
quserebant summi sacerdotes et Scnba? quomodo eum
dolo tenerent, et occiderent. Dicebant autem : Non in 2
die festo, ne forte tumultus fieret in populo.

Et cum esset Bcthania3 in domo Simonis leprosi, et 3
recumberet: venit mulier habens alabastrum unguenti
nardi spicati pretiosi, et fracto alabastro, effudit super
caput ejus. Erant autem quidam indigne ferentes intra 4
semetipsos, et dieentes: Ut quid perditio ista unguenti
facta est? Poterat enim unguentum istud venundari 5
plus quam trecentis denariis, et dari pauperibus. Et
fremebant in earn. Jesus autem dixit: Sinite earn, 6
quid illi molesti estis? Bonuin opus operata est in me.
Semper enim pauperes habetis vobiscum: et cum 7
volueritis, potestis illis benefacere: me autem non sem-
per habetis. Quod habuit hicc, fecit: pnevenit ungere 8
corpus meum in sepulturam. Amen dico vobis: Ubi- 9
cumque piicdicatum fuerit Evangelium istud in universo
mundo, et quod fecit hajc, narrabitur in memoriam
ejus.

Et Judas Iscariotcs unus de duodceim, abiit ad sum- 10
mos sacerdotes, ut proderet cum illis. Qui audientes 1 1
gavisi sunt: et promiserunt ci pecuniam se daturos.
Et qiuerebat quomodo ilium opportune traderet.

Et primo die Azymorum quando Pascha immolabant, 12
dicunt ei discipuli: Quo vis eamus, et paremus tibi ut
inanduccs Pascha? Et mittit duos ex discipulis suis, 13
et dicct eis: lte in civitatem : et occurret vobis homo
lagenam aquae bajulans, sequimini cum: et quocumque 14
introierit, dicitc domino domus, quia magister elicit :
Ubi est refectio mea, ubi Pascha cum discipulis meia
manducem? Et ipse vobis demonstrabit oosnaculum 15
grande, stratum: et illic parate nobis. Et abicrunt 16

discipuli ejus, et venerunt in civitatem : et invenerunt

17 sicut dixerat illis, et paraverunt Pascha. Vespere autem

18 facto, venit cum duodecim. Et discumbentibus eis et
manducantibus, ait JESUS: Amen dico vobis, quia

19 unus ex vobis tradet me, qui manducat mecum. At
illi coeperunt contristari, et dicere ei singulatim : Num-

20 quid ego? Qui ait illis: Unus ex duodecim, qui intingit

21 mecum manum in catino. Et Filius quidem hominis
vadit sicut scriptum est de eo: vas autem homini illi,
per quem Filius hominis tradetur: bonum erat ei, si

22 non esset natus homo ille. Et manducantibus illis,
accepit Jesus panem: et benedicens fregit, et dedit eis,

23 et ait: Sumite, hoc est corpus meum. Et acccpto
calice, gratias agens dedit eis: et biberunt ex illo omnes,

24 Et ait illis: Hie est sanguis meus novi testamenti, qui

25 pro multis effundetur. Amen dico vobis, quia jam
non bibam de hoc genimine vitis usque in diem ilium,

26 cum illud bibam novum in regno Dei. Et hymno dicto
exierunt in montem Olivarum.

27 Et ait eis Jesus : Omnes scandalizabimini in me in
nocte ista: quia scriptum est: Percutiam pastorem, et

28 dispergentur oves. Sed postquam resurrexero, prsece-

29 dam vos in Galilseam. Petrus autem ait illi : Et si omnes

30 scandalizati fuerint in te : sed non ego. Et ait illi
Jesus: Amen dico tibi, quia tu hodie in nocte hac,
priusquam gallus vocem bis dederit, ter me es negaturus.

31 At ille amplius loquebatur; Et si oportuerit me simul
common tibi, non te negabo. Similiter autem et omnes
dicebant.

32 Et voniunt in pnedium, cui nomen Gethsemani.

33 Et ait discipulissuis: Sedete hie donee orem. Et assumit
Petrum, et Jacobum, et Joannem secum: et coepit

his Disciples went their ways, and came into
the city ; and they found as lie had told
them, and they prepared thePasche. ]"And
when even was come, he comet h with the
Twelve. lsAnd when they were sitting at
the table and eating, Jesus said, Amen I say
to you, that one of you shall betray me, he
that eateth with me. "But they began to
be sad, and to say to him severally, Is it I?
80 Who said to them, One of the Twelve, he
that dippeth with me his hand in the dish;
21 and the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is
written of him, but woe to that man by whom
the ,Son of man shall be betrayed ; it were
good for him, if that man had not been born.
2:2 And while they were eating, Jesus took
bread: and blessing, brake and gave to them,
and said, Take, This is my body. 3And
taking the chalice, giving thanks he gave to
them, and they all drank of it. 24And he
said to them, This is my blood of the

said, they went forth into Mount-olivet.

^And Jesus saith to them, You shall all
be scandalized in me in this night: for it is
written, / will strike the Pastor, and the
sheep shall be dispersed. ^But after that I
shall be risen again, I will go before yon into
Galilee. 2jAnd Peter said to him, Although
all shall be scandalized: yet not I. ""And
Jesus saith to him, Amen I say to thee, that
thou this day, in this night, before the cock
crow twice, shalt thrice deny me. :il But he
spake more vehemently, Although 1 should
die together with thee, I will not deny thee.
And in like manner also said they all.

^And they come into a farm-place called
Oct hsemani. And he saith to his Disciples,

43And as he wa9 yet speaking, cometli
Judas iscariote, one of the Twelve, and with
him a great multitude with swords and
clubs, from the chief Priests and the Scribes
and the Ancients.- 44And the betrayer of
him had given them a sign, saving, Whom-
soever I shall kiss, it is he, lay hold on him,
and lead him warily. "•''And when he was
come, immediately going to him, he saith,
Rabbi, and he kissed him. 4r'But they laid
hands upon him: and held him. '•'And one
certain man of the standers about, drawing
out a sword, smote the servant of the chief
priest, and cut off his ear. 43 And Jesus an-
swering, said to them, As to a thief are
you come out with swords and clubs to
apprehend me? 49I was daily with you
in the temple teaching, and you did not
lay hands on me. Hut, that the Scriptures
may be fulfilled. ■° Then his disciples leaving
him, all fled. 61 And a certain young man
followed him clothed with sintlon upon
the bare; and they took him. 63 But
he casting off the sindon, fled from them
naked.

53 And they brought Jesus to the chief
Priest: and all the Priests and the Scribes
and the Ancients assembled together. ,:,4And
Peter followed him afar off, even in unto the
court of the high Priest : and he sat with the
servants at the (ire, and warmed himself.
•"And the chief Priests and all the council
sought testimony against Jesus, that they
might put him to death, neither found they.
"For many spake false witness against, him:
and the testimonies were not convenient.
,r>' And certain rising up, bare false witness
against him, saying, '"That we heard him
say, 1 will dissolve this temple made with
hand, and in three days will 1 build another
not made with hand. B9And their testimony
was not convenient. ""And the high Priest
rising up into t lie midst, asked JeBUS, saying,
Answeresl thou nothing to these things that
are objected to thee of these? 6I But tie held
Ids peace, and answered nothing. Again the
high Pries! asked liim, and said to him, Art
thou Christ the son of the blessed God?
''-'And Jesus saith to him, I am. And you
shall see the Son of man sit t ing on the right
hand of power, and coming with the clouds
of heaven. "And the IhkIi Priest renting
his garments, saith, What need we witnesses
any further? w You have heard blasphemy;

how think you? Who all condemned him
to be guilty of death. ^ And certain began
to spit upon him, and to cover his face, and
to beat him with bullets, and to Bay unto
him, Prophesy : and the servants gave him
blows.

"And when Peter was in the court beneath,
there eometh one of the woman-servants of
the high l'riest. '" And when she had seen
Peter warming himself, beholding him, she
saith, And thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

Et, adhuc co loquente, venit Judas Iscariotes unus 43
de duodceim, ct cum eo turba multa, cum gladiis, et
lignis, a summis sacerdotibus, ct Scribis, et senioribus.
Dedcrat autem traditor ejus signum eis, dicens: Quern- 44
cumque osculatus fuero, ipse est, tencte eum, et ducite
caute. Et cum venisset, statim accedens ad eum, ait: 45
Ave, Rabbi: et osculatus est eum. At illi manus 46
injecerunt in eum, et tenucrunt eum. Unus autem 47
quidam de circumstantibus educens gladium, percussit
servum summi saccrdotis: et amputavit illi auriculam.
Et respondens Jesus, ait illis: Tamquam ad latronem 4S
existis cum gladiis ct lignis comprchendere me? Quo- 49
tidic eram apud vos in templo docens, et non me
tenuistis. Sed ut impleantur Scripturae. Tunc discipuli 50
ejus rclinquentes eum, omnes fugerunt. Adolcscens 5 1
autem quidam sequebatur eum amictus sindone super
nudo : et tenuerunt eum. At ille, rejecta sindone, nudus 5 2
profugit ab eis.

Et adduxerunt Jesum ad summum saccrdotem: et 53
convenerunt omnes sacerdotes, et Scriba?, ct seniores.
Petrus autem a longe secutus est eum usque intro in 54
atrium summi saccrdotis: et sedebat cum ministris ad
ignem, ct calefaciebat se. Summi vcro saccrdotcs, ct 55
omne concilium qmerebant adversus Jesum testimo-
nium, ut eum morti traderent, nee inveniebant. Multi 56
enim testimonium falsum dicebant adversus eum; et
convenientia tcstimonia non crant. Et quidam surgentcs, 57
falsum testimonium ferebant adversus cum, dicentes:
Quoniam nosaudivimus eum dicentem: Ego dissolvam 58
tcinplum hoc manu factum, et per triduum aliud non
manu factum rcdificabo. Et non erat conveniens tcsti- 59
monium illorum. Et exsurgens summus saccrdos in 60
medium, interrogavit Jesum, dicens: Non rcspondes
quidquam ad ea, qua? tibi objiciuntur ab his? Ille autem 61
tacebat, ct nihil rcspondit. Rursum summus saccrdos
intcrrogabat cum, et dixit ei: Tu cs Christus filius
Dei benedicti? Jesus autem dixit illi: Ego sum: et 62
videbitis Filiura hominie Bedentem a dcxtris virtutia
Dei, et venicntem cum nubibus coeli. Summus autem 63
saccrdos scindens vestimenta sua, ait: Quid adhuc

mortis. Et cceperunt quidam conspticrc cum. ct vclarc 65

Et cum cssct Petrus in atrio dcorsum. venit una ex 66
ancillis summi saccrdotis: ct cum vidissct Pctrum 67
calefacientem se, aspioiens ilium, ait: Et tu cum Jesu

68 Xazareno eras. At ille negavit, clicens: Xeque scio,
neque novi quid dicas. Et exiit foras ante atrium, et

69 gallus cantavit. Rursus autem cum vidisset ilhlm
ancilla coepit dicere circumstantibus : Quia hie ex illis

70 est. At ille iterum negavit. Et post pusillum rursus
qui astabant dicebant Petro: Vere ex illis es: nam

71 et Galilseus es. Ille autem coepit anathematizare, et

72 jurare: Quia nescio hominem istum, quern dicitis. Et
statim gallus iterum cantavit. Et recordatus est Petrus
verbi, quod dixerat ei Jesus: Prius quam gallus cantet
bis, ter me negabis. Et coepit flere.

15 Et confestim, mane consilium facientes summi sacer-
dotes, cum senioribus, et Scribis, et universo concilio,

2 vincientes Jesum, duxerunt, et tradiderunt Pilato. Et
interrogavit eum Pilatus: Tu es rex Judaeorum? At

3 ille respondens, ait illi : Tu dicis. Et accusabant eum

4 summi sacerdotes in multis. Pilatus autem rursum
interrogavit eum, dicens: Xon respondes quidquam?

5 vide in quantis te accusant. Jesus autem amplius nihil
respondit, ita ut miraretur Pilatus.

6 Per diem autem festum solebat dimittere illis unum

7 ex vinctis, quemcumque petissent. Erat autem qui
dicebatur Barabbas, qui cum seditiosis erat vinctus, qui

8 in seditione fecerat homicidium. Et cum ascendisset

9 turba, ccepit rogare, sicut semper faciebat illis. Pilatus
autem respondit eis, et dixit: Yultis dimittam vobis

10 regem Judaeorum? Sciebat enim quod per invidiam

I I tradidissent eum summi sacerdotes. Pontificcs autem

concitaverunt turbam, ut magis Barabbam dimitteret

12 eis. Pilatus autem iterum respondens, ait illis: Quid

1 3 erg° vultis f'aciam regi Judaeorum? At illi iterum

14 clamaverunt: Crucifige eum. Pilatus vero dicebat
illis: Quid enim mali fecit? At illi magis clamabant:

dimi.-it dlis Barabbam, et tradidit Jesum dagelliscsesum,

^ISut lie denied, saying, Neither know I,
neither wot I what thou sayest. And he
went fortli before the court: and the cock
crew. 69And again a wench seeing him,
began to say to the standers about, That
this fellow is of them. '° But he denied again.
And after a while again they that stood by,
said to Peter, Verily thou art of them : for
thou art also a Galileean. 71 But he began
to curse and to swear, That I know not this
man whom you speak of. ;2And immediately
the cock crew again. And Peter remem-
bered the word that Jesus had said unto
him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt
thrice deny me. And he began to weep.

And forthwith in the morning the chief
Priests witli the ancients and the Scribes
and the whole council, consulting together,
binding Jesus, led and delivered him to
Pilate. 2And Pilate asked him, Art thou
the King of the Jews? But lie answering,
said to him, Thou sayest. 3And the chief
Priests accused him in many things. * And
Pilate again asked him, saying, Answerest
thou nothing? see in how many things they
accuse thee. 5But Jesus answered nothing
more ; so that Pilate marvelled.

rAnd upon the festival day he was wont to
release unto them one of the prisoners whom-
soever they had demanded. ''And there was
one called Barabbas, which was put in pri-
son with seditious persons, who in a sedition
bad committed murder. sAnd when the
multitude was come up, they began to re-
quire according as always he did unto them.
■And Pilate answered them, and said, "Will
you that I release to you the King of the
Jews? ""For he knew that the chief Priests
for envy had delivered him. "But the
chief Priests moved the people, that lie
should release Barabbas rather to them.
'-And Pilate again answering, said to them,
"\\ hat will yon then tiiat I do to the king of
the Jews ? 13But they again cried, Crucify
him. MAnd Pilate said to them, Why,
what evil hath he done? But thej
tin- more, Crucify him. '"'And Pilate will-

Barabbas, and delivered JeSUS, having whip-

23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled
with myrrh ; and he took it not.

34 And crucifying him, they divided his
garments, casting lots upon them, who
should take which. C5 And it was the third
hour, and they crucified him. 26And the
title of his cause was superscribed, Kim;
OB THE JEWS. ^And witli him they crucify
two thieves: one on the right hand, and
another on his left. 28And the Scripture
was fulfilled that saith, And with the wicked
he tvas reputed. 2l And they that passed by,
blasphemed him, wagging their heads, and
saying, Vali! he that destroyeth the temple,
and in three days buildeth it: 30save thy-
self, coming down from the cross. sl In like
manner also the chief Priests mocking, said
with the Scribes one to another, lie saved
others, himself he cannot save. 3:Let Christ
the king of Israel come down now from the
cross: that we may sec and believe. And
they that were crucified with him, railed at
him.

33 And when it, was the sixth hour, there
was made darkness upon the whole earth
until the ninth hour. -'"And at the ninth
hour Jesus cried out with a mighty voice,
saying, Eloi, Eloi, lamma-saoacthani '.
Which is, being interpreted, My Qod, my
Ood, why hast thou forsaken me! ,v'And
certain of the Btanders about hearing, said,
Behold, he calleth Ehas. 3iAnd one run-
ning and filling a spuuge with vinegar, and
putting it about a reed, gave him drink,
saying, Let be: let us see if Elias come to
take him down. :,; And Jesus putting forth
a mighty voice, gave up the uliost. •''And
tlif \'-il of the temple was rent in two, from
the top to the- bottom. :fJ And the Centu-
rion that stood over against him, seeing that
bo crying he had given up the ghost, said,
Indeed this man was the son of God.

40 And there were also women looking on
afar off; among whom was Marie Magda-
lene, and Marie t he mother of James the
less and of Joseph, and Salome : '"and when
he was in Galilee, they followed him, and
ministered to him, and many other women
that came up together with him to Jerusa-
lem. °And when evening was come (be-
cause it was the Parasceue, which is the
Sabbath-eve) l3came Joseph of Ariinalh:va,
a noble Senator, who himself also was ex-
pecting the kingdom of God : and he went
in boldly to Pilate, and asked the body of
Jesus. **But Pilate marvelled if he were
now dead. And sending for the Centurion
asked him if he were now dead. * And
when he understood by the Centurion, he
BSVe the body to Joseph. *And Joseph

buying Bindon, and taking him down, wrap-
pea him in the sindon, and laid him in a
monument, that was hewed out of a rock.
And he rolled a stone to the door of the
monument. 47 And Marie Mandalene and
Mane of Joseph beheld where he was laid.

And when the sabbath was passed, Mario

Et dabant ei bibere myrrhatum vinum : et non 23

titulus causae ejus inscriptus: KEX JUD^EOKUM.
Et cum eo crucifigunt duos latrones: unum a dextris, 27
ct alium a sinistris ejus. Et impleta est scriptura, quae 28
dicit: Et cum iniquis reputatus est. Et prastereuntes 29
blasphemabant eum, moventes capita sua, ct dicentes:
Vah ! qui destruis templum Dei, ct in tribus dicbus
reaedificas : salvum fac temetipsum descendens de 30

alterutrum cum Scribis dicebant: Alios salvos fecit,
seipsum non potest salvum facere. Christus rex Israel 32
descendat nunc de cruce, ut videamus, et credamus. Et
qui cum co crucifixi erant, convitiabantur ei.

Et facta hora sexta, tenebrae facuc sunt per totam 33

Mark XVI. 2—20.

Magdalene and Marie of James, and Salome
bought spices, that coming they might
anoint Jesus. 2And very early the first of
the Sabbaths, they come to t he monument :
the sun being now risen. 3And they said
one to another. Who shall roll us back the
stone from the door of the monument?
4 And looking, they saw the stone rolled
back, for it was very great. 5 And entering
into the monument, they saw a young man
sitting on the right hand, covered with a
white robe : and they were astonied. 6 Who
saith to them, Be not dismayed : you seek
Jesus of Nazareth, that was crucified : he is
risen, lie is not here, behold the place where
they laid him. ?But go, tell his Disciples
and Peter that lie goeth before you into
Galilee : there you shall see him, as he told
you. 8But they going forth, fled from the
monument, for trembling and fear had in-
vaded them : and they said nothing to any
body; for they were afraid.

9 And he rising early the first of the Sab-
bat h, appeared first to Marie Magdalene, out
of whom he had cast seven devils. 10She
went and told them that had been with him,
that were mourning and weeping. uAnd
they hearing that he was alive, and had been
seen of he:1, did not believe.

u And after this he appeared in another
shape to two of them walking, as they were
going into the country; 13and they going,
told the rest ; neither them did they be-
lieve.

11 Last he appeared to those eleven as they
sat at the table: and he exprobrated their
incredulity and hardness of heart, because
they did not believe them that nad seen
him risen again. 15And he said to them,
Going into the whole world, preach the
Gospel to all creatures. u He 1 hat believe! h
and is baptized, shall be saved : but he that
believeth not, shall be condemned. ''"And
them that believe these signs shall follow:
In my name shall they cast out devils,
They shall sneak with new tongues, '''.Ser-
pents shall they take away, And if they
drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt
them, They shall impose hands upon the
sick, and they shall be whole.

''And so our Lord Jesus after he spake
unto them, was assumpted into heaven, and

sat on the ri^ht hand of God. BBu1 they

going forth preached everywhere : our Lord
working withal, and oonnrming the word

with signs that followed.

JESU CHRISTI
EYANGELIUM SECUNDUM LUCAM.

BECArsE many have gone about to compile
a narration of the things that have been ac-
complished among us : According as they
have delivered unto us, who from the begin-
ning themselves saw and were ministers of
the word: 3it seemed good also unto me,
having diligently attained to all things from
the beginning, to write to thee in order, good
Theophilus, -"that thou mayest know the
verity of those words whereof thou hast been
instructed.

■'There was in the days of Herod the king
of Jewry, a certain Priest named Zacharie,
of the course of Abia: and his wife of the
daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth.
6 And they were both just before God,
walking in all the commandments andjus-
tilieations of our Lord without blame : ''and
they had no son; for that Elizabeth was
barren, and both were well stricken in then-
days. 8And it came to pass, when he exe-
cuted the priestly function in the order of
his course before God, ''according to the
custom of the Priestly function, he went
forth by lot to oiler incense, entering into
the temple of our Lord: 10 and all the mul-
titude of the people was praying without at
tlie hour of the incense. "And there ap-
peared to him an Angel of our Lord, stand-
ing on the right, hand of the altar of incense.
'-And Zacharie was troubled, seeing him:
and fear fell upon him. i:i Put the Angel
said to him, Pear not Zacharie, forthy prayer
is heard: and thy wife Elizabeth shall hear
thee a son, and thou shalt call his name
John: "and thou shall have joy and exulta-
tion, and many shall rejoice in his nativity;
'•'for he shall be great before our Lord : and
wine and sicer he shall not drink : and lie
shall be replenished with the Holy Ghosl
even from his mother's womb; '"and lie
shall convert many of the children of Israel
to the Lord their Gfcod ; 17and he shall ^:o
before him in the spirit and virtue of I '.has ■
that he may convert the hearts of the fathers
unto the children, and the incredulous to the
wisdom of the just, to prepare unto the Lord
B perfect people. "And Zacharie said to the
Angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am
old : and my wife is well stricken in her days.
"Ami the Angel answering said to him, 1
am Gabriel that assist before God: and am
sent to speak to thee, and to evangelize these
tilings to thee. ■'And behold, thou shalt be
dumb, and shalt not be able to sneak until
the day wherein these things shall be done:

QUONJAM quidem multi conati sunt ordinare narra- 1
tionem, quae in nobis complete sunt, rerum : sicut 2
tradiderunt nobis, qui ab initio ipsi viderunt, et ministri
fuerunt sermonis: visum est et mihi, assecuto omnia a 3
principio diligcnter, ex ordine tibi scnbere, optime
Theophile. Ut cognoscas eorum verborum, de quibus 4
eruditus es, veritatem.

Fuit in dicbus Herodis, regis Judrcae, sacerdos qui- 5
dam nomine Zacharias de vice Abia, et uxor illius de
filiabus Aaron, et nomen ejus Elisabeth. Erant autem 6
justi ambo ante Deum, incedentesin omnibus mandatis,
et justificationibus Domini sine querela. Et non erat 7
illis filius eo quod esset Elisabeth sterilis, et ambo pro-
cessissent in diebus suis. Factum est autem. cum 8
sacerdotio fungeretur in ordine vicis suae ante Deum.
Secundum consuetudinem sacerdotii, sorte exiit ut 9
incensum poneret, ingressus in templum Domini: et 10
omnis multitudo populi erat orans foris hora incensi.
Apparuit autem illi Angelus Domini, stans a dextris 1 1
altaris incensi. Et Zacharias turbatus est videns, et 12
timor irruit super cum. Ait autem ad ilium Angelus: 13
Nc timcas Zacharia, quoniam exaudita est deprccatio
tua: et uxor tua Elisabeth pariet tibi filium, et vocabis
nomen ejus Joannem: et crit gaudium tibi. et exultatio, 14
et multi in nativitate ejus gauaebunt: eritenimmagnus 15
coram Domino: et vinum et siceram non bibet, et
Spiritu sancto replebitui adhuo ex utexo matris sue:
et multos filiorum Israel convcrtct ad Dominum Deum \6
ipsorum: et ipse pncccdct ante ilium in spiritu, et 17
virtute Elise: ut convertat corda patrum in filios, et
incrcdulos ad prudentiam justorum, para re Domino
ple-bem perfectam. Et dixit Zacharias ad Angelum: 18
Unde hoc sciam? ego enim sum senex, ct uxor mea
proccssit in diebus suis. Et respondens Angelus -dixit 19
ci: Ego sum Gabriel, qui asto ante Deum: ct missus
sum loqui ad te, et \\xc tibi evangelizare. Et ecee erifl 20
tacens, et non potcris loqui. usque in diem quo haec

fiant, pro eo quod non credidisti verbis meis, quae

2 1 implebuntur in tempore suo. Et erat plebs expectans
Zachariam: et mirabantur quod tardaret ipse in templo.

22 Egressus autem non poteratloqui ad illos, et cognoverunt
quod visionem vidisset in templo. Et ipse erat innuens

23 illis, et permansit mutus. Et factum est, ut impleti

24 sunt dies officii ejus, abiit in domum suam : post lios
autem dies concepit Elisabeth uxor ejus, et occultabat

25 se mensibus quinque, dicens: quia sic fecit milii Domi-
nus in diebus, quibus respexit auferre opprobrium
meum inter homines.

26 In mense autem sexto, missus est Angelus Gabriel

27 a Deo in civitatem Galilaeae, cui nomen Nazareth. Ad
Yirginem desponsatam viro, cui nomen erat Joseph,

28 de domo David, et nomen virginis Maria. Et ingressus
Angelus ad eum dixit: Ave, gratia plena: Dominus

29 tecum: Benedicta tu in mulieribus. Quas cum audissct,
turbata est in sermone ejus, et cogitabat qualis esset ista

30 salutatio. Et ait Angelus ei; Ne timeas, Maria, inve-

3 1 nisti enim gratiam apud Deum : Ecce concipies in utero,

32 et paries filium, et vocabis nomen ejus JESUM. Hie
erit magnus, et Filius Altissimi vocabitur, et dabit illi
Dominus Deus sedem David patris ejus: et regnabit

33 in domo Jacob in aeternum, et regni ejus non erit

34 finis. Dixit autem Maria ad Angelum. Quomodo net

35 istud, quoniam virum non cognosco? et respondens
Angelus dixit ei: Spiritus sanctus superveniet in tc, et
virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. Ideoque et quod

36 nascctur ex te Sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei. Et ecce
Elisabeth cognata tua et ipsa concepit filium in sencc-
tute sua: et hie mensis sextus est illi, quae vocatur steri-

37 lis: quia non erit impossibileapud Deum omneverbum.

38 Dixit autem Maria: Ecce ancilla Domini, fiat mihi
secundum verbum tuum. Et discessit ab ilia Angelus.

for-because thou hast not believed my words,
which shall be fulfilled in their time. 21And
the people was expecting Zacharie: and they
marvelled that he made tarriance in the
temple. 22And coming forth he could not
spealc to them, and they, knew that he had
seen a vision in the temple. And he made
signs to them, and remained dumb, ^And
it came to pass, after the days of his office
were expired, he departed into his house.

24 And after these days, Elizabeth his wife
conceived : and hid herself five months, say-
ing, ;5For thus hath our Lord done to me in
the days wherein he had respect to take away
my reproach among men.

26 And in the sixth month, the Angel Ga-
briel was sent of God into a city of Galilee,
called Nazareth, 2'"to a virgin espoused to a
man whose name was Joseph, of the house of
David : and the virgin's name was Murie.

25 And the Angel being entered in, said unto
her, Hail, full of grace, our Lord is with
thee : blessed art thou among women.
wWho having heard, was troubled at his
saying, and thought wliat manner of saluta-
tion this should be. 3'And the Angel said
to her, Fear not, Marie, for thou bast found
grace with God. 31 Behold thou shalt con-
ceive in thy womb, and shalt bear a son : and
thou shalt call his name Jesus ; 3-'he shall be
great, and shall be called the son of the most
High, and our Lord God shall give him the
seat of David his father; 31and he shall
reign in the house of Jacob for ever, and of
his kingdom there shall be no end. ^And
Marie said to the Angel, How shall this be
done? because I know not man? * And the
Angel answering, said to her, The Holy
Ghost shall come 11)11111 thee, and I lie power
of the most High shall overshadow thee.
And therefore also that which of thee Bhail
be born Holy, shall be rid led the son of God.
•'■"And behold Elizabeth thy cousin, she also
hath conceived a son in her old age: and
this month is the sixth to her that is called
barren: 3~ because there shall not be im-
possible with God any word. MAnd Marie
said, Bbhold the handmaid of our Lord, he
it done In me according U> thy nurd. And
the Angel departed from her.

30 And Marie rising u)) in those days, went
unto the hill country with speed, into a city
of Juda, '''And she entered into the house
of Zacharie, and saluted Elisabeth. "And
it came to pass, as Elizabeth heard the salu-
tation of .Man.', the infant did leap in her
womb; and Elizabeth was replenished with

n Because he hath, regarded the humility of
his handmaid : for behold from hence-
forth all generations shall call me
blessed.

49 Because he that is mighty hath done great
things to me, and holy is his name.

60 And his mercy from generation unto
generations, to them that fear him.

■'' He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath
dispersed the proud in the conceit of
their heart.

■- He hath deposed the mighty from their
seat, and hath exalted the humble.

things; and the rich he hath sent away
empty.

■' He hath received Israel his child, being
mindful of his mercy.

55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham
and his seed for ever.

56 And Marie tarried with her about three
months : and she returned into her house.

57 And Elisabeth's full time was come to be
delivered; and she bare a son. 58And her
neighbours and kinsfolk heard that our Lord
did magnify Ids mercv with her, and they
did congratulate her. 59And it came to pass,
on the eighth day they came to circumcise
the child, and they called him by his father's
name, Zacharie. M And his mother answer-
ing, said, Not so, but he shall be called John.
61 And they said to her, That there is none in
thy kindred that is called by this name.
f2 And they made signs to his father, what
lie would have him called. 0 And demand-
ing a writing table, he wrote, saying, John is
his name. And they all marvelled. w And
forthwith his mouth was opened, and his
tongue, and he spake blessing God. •* And
fear came upon all their neighbours ; and all
these things were bruited over all the hill-
country of Jewry : *and all that had heard,
laid them up in their heart, saying. What
an one, trow ye, shall this child be?_For
the hand of our Lord was with him. /'And
Zacharie his father was replenished with the
Iloly Ghost: and he prophesied, saying,

6S Blessed be ofr Loud Qod of Israel :
because he hath visited and wrought the
redemption of his people :

m And hath erected the horn of salvation to
us, in the house of David his tenant.

^As he spake by the mouth of his holy Pro-
phets, that are from the beginning.

'' Salutation from our enemies, and from the
hand of all that hate us :

72 To work mercy with our fathers : anil to
remember his holy testament,

"■ In holiness and justice before him, all our
days.

76 And thou child, shaft be called the Prophet
of the Hiijhest : for thou shalt go before
the face of our Lord to prepare his
toays.

•7 To give knowledge of salvation to his peo-
ple, unto remission of their sins,

73 Through the bowels of the mercy of our
God, in which the Orient from on high
hath visited us,

79 To illuminate them that sit in darkness,
and in the shadow of death : to direct
our feet into the way of peace.

80 And the child grew, and was strength-
ened in spirit, and was m the deserts until
the day of his manifestation to Israel.

And it came to pass, in those days there
came forth an edict from Caesar Augustus,
that the whole world should be enrolled.
-This first enrolling was made by the Presi-
dent of Syria Cyrinus. 3 And all went to be
enrolled, every one into his own city. 4And
Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the
city of Nazareth into Jewry, to the city of
David, that is called Beth-lehein: for-because
he was of the house and family of David,
5 to be enrolled with Marie his espoused
wife that was with child. 6And it came to
pass, when they were there, her days were
fully come that she should be delivered.
'And she brought forth her first begotten
son, and swaddled him in clothes, and laid
him down in a manger: because there was
not place for them in the inn.

sAnd there were in the same country
shepherds watching, and keeping the night
watches over their flock. 9And behold, an
Angel of our Lord stood beside them, and
the brightness of God did shine round about
them, and they feared withagreal fear. '"And
the Angel said to t hem, Fear not : for behold
I evangelize to you great jov. that shall be to
all the people: "because tins day 1- born to
you a Savioiic which is Christ our Lord, in
the city of David. '-'And this shall be a
sign to you. You shall litid the infant -wad-
dled in clothes, and laid in s manger. '•' And .
suddenly there was with the Angel a multi-
tude of the heavenly arinv. praising God,

and saying, " Glory in the highest to God ,•

mill ut 1 in l/i /a mi to I"' 11 'if qniid will.

14 And it came to pass, niter the Angels de-
parted from them into heaven, the shepherds

God in all things tlmt they had heard, and
seen, aa it was said to them.

21 And after eight days were expired, that
the child should be 'circumcised, his name
was called Jesus, which was called by the
Angel, before that he was conceived in the
womb.

22 And after the days were fully ended of
her purification according to the law of
Moyses, they carried him into Jerusalem, to
present him to our Lord, B (as it is written in
the law of our Lord, That every male open-
ing the matrice, shall be called holy to the
Lord,) 24 and to give a sacrifice according
as it is written in the law of our Lord, a pair
of turtles, or two young pigeons. * And be-
hold, there was a man in Jerusalem, named
Simeon, and this man was just and religious,
expecting the consolation of Israel : and the
Holy Ghost was in him. -'"'And he had re-
ceived an answer of the Holy Ghost, that he
should not see death unless he saw first the
Christ of our Lord. 2?And he came in
spirit into the temple. And when his parents
brought in the child Jesus, to do according
to t lie custom of the Law for him : -8 he also
took him into his arms, and blessed God,
and said,

23 Now Tirotr dost dismiss thy servant, O
Lord, according to thy word in peace.

30 Because mine eyes have seen thy Salva-

tion,

31 Which thou hast prepared before the face

of all peoples :

32 A light to the revelation of the Gentiles,

'and the glory of thy people Israel.

33 And his father and mother were mar-
velling upon those tilings which were spoken
concerning him. :il And Simeon blessed
them, and said to Marie his mother. Behold
this is set unto the ruin, and unto the resur-
rection of many in Israel, and for a sign
which shall be contradicted ; r'and thine own
soul shall a sword pierce, that out of man;
hearts cogitations may be revealed. "And
there was Anne a prophetess, the daughter
of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was
far stricken in days, and had lived with her
husband seven years from her virginity.
:'7.\nd she was a widow until eight] and
four years: who departed not from the tem-
ple, by fastings and prayers serving nighl and
day. ■ And she at the same hour suddenly
coming in, confessed to our Lord: and spake
of him to all that expected the redemption of
Israel. "And after thej had wholly done
all things according tothelawof our I !
they returned into Galilee, into their city
Nazareth.

«• And the child grew, and waxed strong:
full of wisdom, and the grace of God was
in him. tt And his parents went wen jrear
unto Jerusalem, al the solemn day of Pasohe.

'And when he was twelve years old, they

43 consummatisque diebus, cum redirent, remansit puer
Jesus in Jerusalem, et non cognoverunt parentes ejus.

44 Existimantes autem ilium esse in comitatu, venerunt

45 Et noninvenientes, regressi sunt in Jerusalem, requirentes

46 eum. Et factum est, post triduum in venerunt ilium in
templo sedentem in medio doctorum, audientem illos,

47 et interrogantem eos. Stupebant autem omnes, qui

48 audiebant, super prudentia, et responsis ejus. Et
videntes admirati sunt. Et dixit mater ejus ad ilium:
Fili, quid fecisti nobis sic? ecce pater tuus et ego dolen-

49 tes quaerebamus te. Et ait ad illos: Quid est quod me
quaerebatis? nesciebatis quia in his, quae patris mei sunt,

50 oportet me esse? Et ipsi non intellexerunt verbum,

5 1 quod locutus est ad eos. Et descendit cum eis, et venit

custom of the festival day, ■"and having
ended the days, when tliey returned, the
child Jesus remained in Jerusalem : and his
parents knew it not. 44 And thinking that
he was in the company, they came a day's
journey, and'sought him among their kinsfolk
and acquaintance. c And not finding him,
they returned into Jerusalem, seeking him.
46 And it came to pass, after three days they
found him in the temple sitting in the midst
of the Doctors, hearing them, and asking
them. 4'"And all were astonied that heard
him, upon his wisdom and answers. 43 And
seeing him, they wondered. And his mother
said to him, Son, why hast thou so done to
us ? behold thy father and I sorrowing did
seek thee. 4U And he said to them, What is
it that you sought me ? did you not know
that I must be about those things, which are
my father's? s0 And they understood not
the word that he spake unto them. 51And
he went down with them, and came to
Nazareth : and was subject to them. And
his mother kept all these words in her heart.
52 And Jesus proceeded in wisdom and age,
and grace with God and men.

And in the fifteenth year of the empire of
Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being Go-
vernor of Jewry, and Herod being Tetrarch
of Galilee, and Philip his brother Tetrarch
of Iturea and the country Traehonitis, and
Lysanias Tetrarch of Abilina, 2 under the
high Priests Annas and Caiphas : the word
of our Lord was made upon John the son of
Zacharie, in the desert. 3 And lie came into
all the country of Jordan, preaching the bap-
tism of penance unto remission of sins ; as it
is written in the book of the sayings of Esay
the Prophet : 4 A voice of one crying in the
desert : prepare the way of our Lord, make
straight his paths. ' Every valley shall be
filled : and every mountain and hill shall be
made low, and crooked things shall become
straight : and rough ways, plain ; 6 and all
Jlesh shall see the Salvation of God.

7 He said therefore (o the multitudes that
went forth to be bap! ized <>f him, S e 1 ipi re'

than that which i9 appointed you. 14And
the soldiers also asked him, saying, What
shall we also do? And he said to them,
Vex not, neither calumniate any man ; and
be content with your stipends.

15 And the people imagining, and all men
thinking in their hearts of John, lest perhaps
he were Christ. 16John answered, saying
unto all, I indeed baptize you with water:
but there shall come a mightier than I, whose
latchet of his shoes I am not worthy to un-
loose, he shall baptize you in the Holy Ghost
and fire; 17 whose fan is in his hand, and he
will purge his floor; and will gut her the
wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will
burn with unquenchable fire. 18 Many other
things also exhorting did he evangelize to the
people.

"And Herod the Tetrareh, when he was
rebuked of him for Herodiaa his brother's
wife, and for all the evils which Jlerod
did, ai he added this also above all, and shut
up John into prison.

21 And it came to pass when all the people
was baptized, Jesus also being baptized and
praying, heaven was opened: ^and t lie
Holy (jhost descended in corporal shape
as a dove upon him: and a voice from
heaven was made: Thou art my beloved son,
in thee 1 am well pleased. 3Aik1 Jesus him-

Quia non in solo pane vivit homo, sed in omni verbo

5 Dei. Et duxit ilium diabolus in montem excelsum, et
ostendit illi omnia regna orbis terrae in momento tem-

et gloriam illorum ; quia mihi tradita sunt, et cui volo

7 do ilia. Tu ergo si adoraveris coram me, erunt tua

duxit ilium in Jerusalem, et statuit eum super pinnam

turned from Jordan, and was driven in the
spirit into the desert, 2 forty days, and was
tempted of the devil. And he did eat nothing
in those days: and when they were ended
he was an hungred. 3 And the Devil said to
him, If thou be the son of God, say to this
stone that it be made bread. 4And Jesus
made answer unto him, It is written. That
not in bread alone shall man lire, out in
every word of God. 5And the Devil brought
him into an high mountain, and shewed him
all the kingdoms of the whole world in a
moment of time. 6 And he said to him, To
thee will I give this whole power, and the
glory of them : for to me they are delivered,
and to whom I will, I do give them. ? Thou
therefore, if thou wilt adore before me, they
shall all be thine. 8And Jesus answering, said
to him, It is written, Thou shalt adore the
Lord thy God, and him only shalt fhoi>
serve. 'And he brought him into Jerusalem,
and set him upon the pinnacle of the temple;
and he said to him, If thou be the son of
God, cast thyself from hence downward.
10 For it is written, that He hath given his
Angels charge of thee, that they preserve
thee: "and that in their hands they shall
bear thee up, lest perhaps thou knock thy
foot against a stone. '-And Jesus answering,
said to him, It is said, 1'hou shalt not tempt
the Lord thy God. l:iAnd all the tenta-
tion being ended, the Devil departed from
him until a time.

11 And Jesus returned in the force of the
spirit into Galilee, and the fame went forth
through the whole country of him. 13And
he taught in their synagogues, and was mag-
nified of all.

16 And he came to Nazareth where he was
brought up : and he entered according to his
custom on the Sabbath day into the syna-
gogue: and he rose up to read. '"And t lie

into Sarepta of Sidon, to a widow woman.
2'And there were many lepers in Israel
under Elisscus the Prophet: and none of
them was made clean but Naaman the Syrian.
28 And all m the synagogue were filled with
anger, hearing these things. -9And they
rose, and cast him out, of the city; and the]
brought him to the edge of the hill, where-
upon their city was built, that thev might
throw him down headlong. ^But he pass-
ing through the midst of them, went his
way.

31 And he went down into Capharnaum, a
city of Galilee: and there he taught them on *>
the Sabbaths. B And they were astonied at
his doctrine ; because his talk was in power.
33 And in the synagogue there was a man
having an unclean Devil, and he cried out
with a loud voice, M saying, Let be, what to
us and thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou
come to destroy us? I know thee who thou
art, the Saint of God. B And Jesus re-
linked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and go
out of him. And when the Devil had thrown
him into the midst, he went out of him, and
hurled him nothing. M And there came fear
upon all, and they talked together lone with
another, saying, What word is this, that in
power and virtue he commandeth the un-
clean spirits, and they go out ? 37 And the
fame of him was published into every place
of the country.

33 And Jesus rising up out of the syna-
gogue, entered into Simon's house. And
Simon's wife's mother was holden with a
great fever: and they besought him for her.
39 And standing over her, he commanded
the fever, and it left her. And incontinent
rising, she ministered to them. ,0 And when
the sun was down, all that had diseased of
sundry maladies, brought them to him. But
he imposing hands upon every one, cured
them. 41And Devils went, out from many,
crying, and saying, That thou art the son of
God. And rebuking them, he suffered them
not to speak, that they knew he was Christ.

42 And when it was day, going forth, he
went into a desert place : and the multitudes
sought him, and came even unto him: and
they held him that ho should not depart
from them. 43 To whom he said, That to
other cities also must, 1 evangelise the king-
dom of God : because therefore I was sent.
41 And he was preaching in the synagogues
of Galilee.

And it came to pass, when the multitudes
pressed upon him to hear the word of God,
and himself stood beside the lake of Genesa-
reth. -And he saw two ships standing by
the lake: and the fishers were gone down,
and washed their nets. 3And he going up
into One ship that Was Simon's, desired him
to bring it back a little from the land,
sitting, he taught, the multitudes oat of the
ship.

4 And as he ceased to speak, he said to
Simon, Launch forth into the deep, and let
loose your nets to make a draught. * And
Simon answering, said to him. Master, la-
bouring all thi' night, we have taken nothing:
but iu thy word 1 will let loose the net.

Et multi leprosi erant in Israel sub Elisaso propheta: 27
et nemo eorum mundatus est nisi Xaaman Syrus. Et 28
repleti sunt omnes in synagoga ira, hajc audicntes. Et 29
surrexerunt, et ejeceruut ilium extra eivitatem, et duxe-

Ipse autem transiens per medium illorum, ibat. 30

Et deseendit in Capharnaum eivitatem Gaidar, 31
ibique doccbatillos sabbatis. Et stupebant in doctrina 32
ejus, quia in potestate erat sermo ipsius. Et in synagoga 33
erat homo habens dtemonium immundum, et exclamavit
voce magna. Dicens: Sine, quid nobis et tibi, Jesu 34
Nazarene? venisti perdere nos? scio te qui sis, Sanctus
Dei. Et increpavit ilium Jesus, dicens: Obmutesce, et 35
exi ab eo. Et cum projecisset ilium dajmonium in
medium, exiit ab illo, nihilque ilium nocuit. Et f'actus 36
est pavor in omnibus, et colloquebantur ad invicem,
dicentes: Quod est hoc verbum, quia in potestate et
virtute imperat immundis spintibus, et exeunt? Et 27
divulgabatur fama de illo in omnem locum rejnonis.

Surgens autem Jesus de synagoga, introivit in domum 38
Simonis. Socrus autem Simonis tcnebatur magnis
febribus: et rogaveruut ilium pro ea. Et stans super 39
ilium imperavit febri: et dimisit illam. Et continuo
surgens ministrabat illis. Cum autein sol occidisset : 40
omnes, qui habebant infirmos variis languoribus, duce-
bant illos ad eum. At ille, singulis manus imponens,
curabateos. Exibant autem dasraonia a m'ultis daman taa 41
etdicentia: Quia tu es filius Dei: et increpans non
sinebat ea loqui: qtiia sciebant ipsum esse Christum.

Facta autem die egrcssus ibat in desertum locum, et 42
turbaj rcquirebant cum,ct venerunt usque ad ipsum: et
detinebant ilium ne discederet ab eis. Quibus ille ait: 43
Quia et aliis civitatibus oportct me evangelizare regnum
I >ei : quia ideo missus sum. Et erat pnvdicans in syna- 44
gogis Galilsese.

Factum est autem, cum turban irruerent in eum, ut 5
audirent verbum Dei, et ipse stabat sccus stagnum
( lenesareth. Et vidit duas naves atantee secus stagnum : 2
piscatorea autem descenderant, et lavabant.retia. As- 3
cendens autem in unam navim, qua- erat Simonis, rogavit
eum a terra reducerc pusillum. Et sedens docebat de
navicula turbas.

Ut cessavit autem loqui, dixit ad Simoncm : Due in 4
ahum, et laxate retia vestra in capturam. Et respondens 5
Simon, dixit illi: Prseceptor, per totam noctem labor-
antes, nihil cepimus: in verbo autem tuo laxabo rete.

6 Et cum hoc fecissent,concluseruntpiscium multitudincm

7 copiosam, rumpebatur autem rete eorum. Et annuerunt
sociis, qui erant in alia navi, ut venirent, et adjuvarent
eos. Et venerunt, et impleverunt ambas naviculas, ita

8 ut pene mergerentur. Quod cum videret Simon Petrus,
procidit ad genua Jesu, dicens: Exi a me, quia homo

9 peccator sum, Domine. Stupor enim circumdederat
eum, et omnes, qui cum illo erant, in captura piscium,

10 quam ceperant: similiter autem Jacobum, et Joannem,
filios Zebedaai, qui erant socii Simonis. Et ait ad Simon-
em Jesus : Noli timere : ex hoc jam homines eris capiens.

11 Etsubductis ad terram navibus, relictis omnibus secuti
sunt eum.

12 Et factum est, cum esset in una civitatum, et ecce
vir plenus lepra, et videns Jesum, et procidens in faciem,
rogavit eum, dicens: Dominie, si vis, potes me mundare.

13 Et extendens manum, tetigiteum, dicens: Yolo: ]\lun-

14 dare. Et confestim lepra discessit ab illo. Et ipse
pnecepit illi ut nemini diceret: sed, Vade, ostende te
sacerdoti, et offer pro emundatione tua, sicut praecepit
Moyses, in testimonium i Ills.

1 5 I'erambulabat autem magis sermo de illo: et conveni-
ebant turbae multae, ut audirent. et curarentur ab infirmi-

16 tatibus suis. Ipse autem sccedebat in desertum, et orabat.

6 And when they had done tliis, tliey inclosed a
very great multitude of fishes, and their ike
was broken. ''And they beckoned to their
fellows that were in the other ship, that they
should come and help them. And they
came and filled both ships, so that they did
sink. 8 "Which when Simon Peter did see,
he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Go
forth from me, because I am a sinful man, O
Lord. 9For he was wholly astonished, and.
all that were with him, at the draught of
fishes which they had taken. I0 In like man-
ner also James and John the sons of Zebe-
dee, who were Simon's fellows. And Jesus
said to Simon, Fear not : from this time
now, thou shalt be taking men. "And
having brought their ships to land, leaving
all things they followed him.

12 And it came to pass, when he was in^
one of the cities, and behold a man lull of
leprosy, and seeing Jesus, and falling on his
face, besought him saying, Lord, if thou
wilt, thou canst make me clean. u And
stretching forth the hand, he touched him,
saying, I will ; be thou made clean. And
immediately the leprosy departed from him.
14 And he commanded him that he should tell
nobody, but, Go, shew thyself to the Priest,
and offer for thy cleansing as Moyses com-
manded, for a testimony to them.

15 But the bruit of him went abroad the
more; and great multitudes came together
to hear, and to he cured of their infirmi-
ties. ir> And he retired into the desert, and
prayed.

]?And it came to pass one day, and he
sat teaching. And there were Pharisees
sittintr, and Doctors of Law that were come
out of every town of Galilee and Jewrie and
Jerusalem : and the virtue of our Lord was
to lieal them. uAnd behold men carrying
in a bed a man that had the pals): and
.ught to bring him in, and to lay bina
bun. "And not finding on winch
side they mighl bring him in for the mul-
titude, they wen! up upon the roof, and

27 And after these things he went forth, and

saw a Publican called Levi, sitting at the
Custom-house, an<l lie said to him, Follow
me. MAnd leaving all things, he rose and
followed him. 2'And Levi made him a great
feast in his house: and there was a great
multitude of Publicans, and of others that
were Bitting at the table with them. *And
their Pharisees ami Scribes murmured, say-
ing to his disciples, Why do you eat and
drink with Publicans and sinners? alAnd
Jesus answering said to them, They that
are whole need not the Physician ; but they
that are ill at ease. a- 1 came not to call the
just, but sinners to penance.

33 But they said to him, Why do the dis-
ciples of John fast often, and make obsecra-
tions, and of the Pharisees in like manner:
but thine do eat and drink ? *• To whom he
said, Why, can you make the children of the
bridegroom fast whiles the bridegroom is
with them? :l5 But the days will come : and
when the bridegroom shall be taken away
from them, then they shall last in those days.
88 And he said a similitude also unto them,
That no man putteth a piece from a new
garment into an old garment : otherwise
both he breakeththe new, and the piece from
the new agreeth not with the old. "7 And
nobody putteth new wine into old bottles:
Otherwise the new wine will break the bot-
tles, and itself will be shed, and the bottles
will be lost. ^But new wine is to be put
into new bottles: and both are preserved
together. "And no man drinking old, will
new by and by; for he saith, The old is
better.

And it came to pass on the Sabbat h second-
first, when he passed through the corn, his
Disciples did pluck the ears and did eat, rub-
bing them with their hands. -And certain
of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you
that which is not lawful on the Sabbaths?
3 And .lesus answering them, said, Neither
this have you read which David did, when
himself was an hungrcd anil t hey that were
with him: 'how he entered into the house
of God, and took the loaves of Proposition,
and did eat. and gave to them that were
with him, which it is not lawful to eat but
only for Priests? 'And he said to them,
That the son of man is Lord of the Sabbath
also.

6 And it came to pass on another Sabbath
also, that he entered into the synagogue, and
taught. And there was a man, and Ins right
hand was withered. 'And the Seniles and
Pharisees watched if he would cure on
tin- Sabbath: that they might find how to
accuse him. s But he knew their cogitations:
and he said to the man that had the withered
hand. Arise, and stand forth into the midst.

And rising, he stood. 'And .lesus said to
them, I ask you, if it bo lawful (m the Sab-
baths to do well or ill : to <ave a soul or to
destroy? "'And looking about upon them
all, he said to the man. Stretch forth thy
hand. And he stretched it forth: and his
hand was restored. "And thev were
replenished with madness: and they

Et post haec exiit, et vidit publicanum nomine Levi, 27
sedentem ad Telonium, et ait illi: Sequere me. Et 28
rclictis omnibus, surgens aecutus est eum. Et fecit ei 29
convivium magnum Levi in domo sua: et erat turba
multa publicanorum, et aliorum, qui eum illis erant
discumbentes. Et murmurabant Phariaaei et Scrilxe 30
eorum dieentes ad discipulos ejus : Quare eum publicanis
et peccatoribus manducatis et bibitis? Et respondens3l
Jesus, dixit ad illos: Kon egent qui sani sunt medico,
sed qui male habent. Non veni vocare justos, sed 32
peccatores ad pcenitentiam.

At illi dixerunt ad eum: Quare discipuli Joannis 33
jejunant frequenter, et obsecrationes faciunt, similiter
et Pharisaeorum : tui autem edunt, et bibunt? Quibus 34
ipse ait: Numquid potestis films' sponsi,dum eum illis est

fuerit ab illis sponsus, tunc jejunabunt in illis diebus. 36
Dicebat autem et similitudinem ad illos? Quia nemo

convenit commissura a novo. Et nemo mittit vinum ^y
novum in utres vcteres: alioquin rumpct vinum

vinum novum in utres novos mittendum est, et utraque

Factum est autem in sabbato secundo primo, cum 6
transiret per sata.vellebant discipuli ejus spicas,et mandu-
cabant confricantes manibus. Quidam autem Pharisee- 2
orum dicebant illis: Quid facitis quod non licet in
sabbatis? Et respondens Jesus ad eos, dixit: Xec hoc 3
legistis quod fecit David, cum csurissct ipse, et qui cum
illo erant: quomodo intravit in domum Dei, et panes 4
propositions sumpsit, et manducavit, et dedit his, qui
cum ipso erant: quos non licet manducare nisi tantum
sacerdotibus? Et dicebat Hlis: Quia Dominus est 5
Filius hominis etiam sabbati.

Factum est autem et in alio Babbato, ut intraret in 6
synagogam, et doceret. Et erat ibi homo, et nianus
ejus dextra erat arida. Observabant autem Scribe et 7
Phariaaei si in sabbato curarct: ut invenirent unde
accusarent cum. Ipse vero sciebat cogitationes eorum: 8
et ait homini, qui nabebat manum aridam: Surge, et
Bta in medium. Et surgens stetit. Ait autem ad illos 9

12 Factum est autem in illis diebus, exiit in montem

13 orare, et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei. Et cum dies
factus esset, vocavit discipulos suos: et elegit duodecim

14 ex ipsis (quos et Apostolos nominavit). Simonem,
quern cognominavit Petrum, et Andream fratrem ejus,
Jacobum, et Joannem, Philippum, et Bartholomseum,

1 5 Mattbaeum, et Thomam, Jacobum Alpha3i, et Simonem,

16 qui vocatur Zelotes, et Judam Jacobi, et Judam Isca-

17 riotem, qui fuit proditor. Et descendens cum illis,
stetit in loco campestri, et turba discipulorum ejus, et
multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Judaea, et Jerusalem,

18 et maritima et Tyri et Sidonis, qui venerantutaudirent
eum, et sanarentur a languoribus suis. Et qui vexa-

19 bantur a spiritibus immundis curabantur. Et omnis
turba quaerebat eum tangere: quia virtus de illo exibat,

20 et sanabat omnes. Et ipse elevatis oculis in discipulos

12 And it came to pass in those days, he
went forth into the mountain to pray, and
he passed the whole night in the prayer of
God. ^ And when day was come, he called
his Disciples : and he chose twelve of them
(whom also he named Apo.stle.i) u Simon
whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his
brother, James and John, Philippe and Bar-
tholomew, 15 .Matthew and Thomas, James
of Alphseusand Simon that is called Zelotes,
''and Jude of James, and Judas Iscariote
which was the traitor. '"And descending
with them he stood in a plain place, and the
multitude of his Disciples, and a very great
company of people from all Jewry and Jeru-
salem : and the sea coast both of Tyre and
Sidon, M which were come to hear him, and
to be healed of their maladies. And they
that were vexed of unclean spirits, were
cured. )9And all the multitude sought .to
touch him, because virtue went forth from
him, and healed all. --0 And he lifting up his
eyes upon his Disciples, said,

Blessed are ye poor : for your's is the king-
dom of God. 2I Blessed are you that now
are an hungred: because you shall be filled.
Blessed are you that now do weep : because
you shall laugh. -Blessed shall you be
when men shall hate you, and when they
shall separate you, and upbraid you, and
abandon your name as evil, for the son of
man's sake. ^ Be glad in that day, and re-
joice: for, behold, your reward is much in

cause himself is beneficial upon the unkind
and the evil. B8 Be ye therefore merciful as

39 And he said to them a similitude also:
Can the blind lead the blind? do not both
fall into the ditch? •'"The disciple is not
above his master: but every one shall be
perfect, if he be as his master. 4l And why
seest thou the mote in thy brother's eye:
but the beam that is in thine own eye thou
considerest not? 420r how canst thou say
to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the
mote out of thine eye; thyself not seeing
the beam in thine own eye? Hypocrite,
cast first the beam out of thine own eye;
and then shall thou see clearly to take forth
the mote out of thy brother's eye.

43 For there is no good tree that yieldeth
evil fruits: nor evil tree that yieldeth good
fruit. ""For every tree is known by his
fruit. For neither do they gather figs ol
thorns: neither of a bush do they gather
the grape. l5The good man of the good
treasure of his heart bringeth forth goorl :
and the evil man of the ill treasure bringeth
forth evil; for of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh.

»'' And why call you me, Lord, Lord : and
do not the i hint's which 1 say? 4" Every
one that cometh to me, and heareth my
words, and doeth them, I will shew you to
whom he is like. 4lle is like to a mm
building a house, that digged deep, and laid
the foundation upon a rock. And when an
inundation rose, the river beat against thai
house, and it could not move it : lor it was
founded upon a rock. 49Hut he thai hear-
cth, and doeth not, is like to a man building
his house upon the earth without a foun-
dation; against the which the river did beat,
and incontinent it fell, and the ruin of that
house was great.

And when he had fully said all his words
into the ears of the people, he entered into
Capharnaum. - And the servant ol a certain
Centurion being sick, was ready to die: who
\sas dear unto him. :1 And when he hud
heard of Jesus, lie sent unto him the An-
cients of the .lews, desiring him to come and
heal his servant. 4 But they being c >me to

Jesus, besought him earnestly, saving to him,
That he is worthy that thou shouldesl do
this for him. •' For lie loveth our nation:
ami he hath built a synagogue for us. '

Jesus went with them. And when he
UOW nit far from the house, the Centurion
sent his friends unto him, saying. Lord,
trouble not thyself ; for I am not worthy that

the which cause neither did I think myself
worthy to come to thee: but say the word,
and my servant shall be made whole; 8for
I also am a man subject to authority, having
under me soldiers: and I say to this, go,
and he goeth : and to another, come, and he
cometh : and to my servant, do this, and he
doeth it. 9 Which Jesus hearing, marvelled;
and turning to the multitudes that followed
him he said, Amen I say to you, neither in
Israel have I found so great faith. 10And
they that were sent, being returned home,
found the servant that had been sick, whole.

11 And it came to pass, afterward he went
into a city that is called Nairn : and there
went with him his Disciples and a very
great multitude. 1: And when lie came nigh
to the gate of the city, behold a dead man
was carried forth, the only sou of his mother;
and she was a widow: and a treat multi-
tude of the city with her. u Whom when
our Lord had seen, being moved with mercy
upon her, he said to her, Weep not. 14 And
he came near, and touched the coffin. And
they that carried it, stood still: and he said,
Young man, I say to thee, Arise. 15 And he
that was dead, sat up, and began to speak.
And he gave him to his mother. "'And fear
took them all: and they magnified God, say-
ing, That a great Prophet is risen among
11s; and, That God hath visited his people.
17 And this saying went forth into all Jewry
of him, and into all the country about.

18 And John's disciples shewed him of all
those things. '-'And John called two of his
disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying,
Art thou he that art to come; or expeel we
another? 10And when the men were come
unto him, they said, John the Baptisl hath
sent us to thee, Baying, Art thou he that art
to come ; or expect we another? ('-' And the
selfsame hour lie cured many of maladies,
and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many
blind he gave sight.) '^And answering, he
said to them, Go and report to John what

hearing and the Publicans, justified God,
being Baptized with John's baptism. •*' But
the Pharisees and the lawyers despised the
counsel of God against themselves, being
not baptized of him. -"And our Lord said,
Whereunto, then, shall I liken the men of
this generation, and whereunto are they like?
3-They are like to children sitting in the
market-place, and speaking one to another,
and Baying, We have piped to you, and you
have not danced: we have lamented, and
you have not wept. alFor John the Baptist
came neither eatingbread nor drinking wine:
and you say. He hath a devil. w The son
of man came eating and drinking: and you
say, Behold a man that is a gourmander and
a drinker of wine, a friend of Publicans and
sinners. M And wisdom is justified of all
her children.

36 And one of the Pharisees desired him
to eat with him. And being entered into
the house of the Pharisee, he sat down to
meat. ^And behold a woman that was in
the city, a sinner, as she knew that he was
set down in the Pharisee's house, slie brought
an alabaster box of ointment : "and stand-
ing behind beside his feet, she began to
water Us fret with tears, and wiped them
with the hairs of her head, and kissed his
feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
"And the Pharisee that had bid him, see-
ing it, spake within himself, saying, This man,
if he were a Prophet, would know certes
who and what manner of woman she is
which toucheth him, that she is a sinner.
41 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon,
I have somewhat to say unto thee; but he
said, Master, say. 41 A certain creditor had
two debtors: one did owe five hundred
pence, and the other fifty. 4-"i'hey having
not wherewith to pay, he forgave both.
Whether, therefore, doth love him more?
43 Simon answering said, I suppose that he
to whom he forgave more. But he said to
him, Thou hast judged rightly. " And turn-
ing to the woman, he said unto Simon,
Dost thou see this woman ? I entered into
thy house, water to my feet thou didst not
give: but she with tears hath watered my
feet and with her hairs hath wiped them.

45 Kiss thou gavest me not : but she, since
T came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

46 With oil thou didst not anoint my head:
but she with ointment hath anointed my
feet. 4'For the which 1 say to thee, Many
sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved
much. But to whom less is forgiven, he
loveth less. 4sAnd he said to her. Thy
sins are forgiven thee. *And they thai
sat together at the table, began to say within
themselves, Who is this that also forgiveth
sins? '"And lie said to the woman, Thy
faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.

And it came to pass afterward, and he
made Ids journey by cities and towns, preach-
ing and evangelizing the kingdom of God:
and the Twelve wit h him, -and some women
that had been cured of wicked spirits and
infirmities, Marie which is called Magdalene,

Similes sunt pueris sedentibus in foro, et loquentibus 32

non saltastis: lamentavimus, et non plorastis. Venit 33

Eilius hominis manducans et bibens, et dicitis: Ecce

quingentos, et alius quinquaginta. Xon habentibus 42
illis unde redderent, donavit utrisque. Quis ergo cum

Et conversus ad mulierem, dixit Simoni: Vide? banc 44

Remittuntur ei peccata multa, quoniam dilexit multum.
Cui autem minus dimittitur, minus diligit. Dixit 48
autem ad illam: Remittuntur tibi peccata. Et cocpe- 49

3 and Joane the wife of Chusa Herod's pro-
curator, and Susan, and many others that
did minister unto him of their substance.

4 And when a very great multitude as-
sembled, and hastened out of the cities unto
him, lie said by a similitude: 5T!ie sower
went forth to sow his seed; and whiles he
soweth, some fell by the way-side, and was
trodden upon, and the fowls of the air did
eat it. 6 Anil other some fell upon the roi'k :
and being shot up, it_ withered, because it
had not moisture. ' And other some fell
among thorn*, and the thorns growing up
withal, choked ir. sAnd other some fell upon
good ground : and being shot up, yielded
fruit an hundredfold. Saying these things
he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him
hear.

9 And his disciples asked him what this
parable was. 10 To whom he said, To you
is given to know the mystery of the king-
dom of God, but to the rest in parables,
that seeing they may not see, and hearing
may not understand. "And the parable is
this: The seed is the word of God. l;And
they beside the way, are those that hear;
then the devil cometh, and taketh the word
out of their heart, lest believing they be
saved. 13 For they upon the rock, such as
when they hear, with joy receive the word ;
and these have no roots, because for a time
they believe, and in time of tentation they
revolt. M And that which fell into thorns,
are they that have heard, and going their
ways, are choked with cares and riches and
pleasures of this life, and render not fruit.
r' And that upon good ground, are they which
ill a good and very good heart, hearing the
word, do retain it, and yield fruit in pa-
t ience,

manifest: nor hid, thai shall not be known,

and come ahroad. "See therefore how you
hear. For he that hath, to linn shall he
given: and whosoever hath not, that also
which he thjnketh be hath, shall he taken
away from him.

nnd there was made a calm. * And he said
to them, Where is your faith ? Who fear-
ing, marvelled one to another, saying, Who
is this (trow ye) that he coinmanfleth both
the winds and the sea, and they obey him?
38 And they sailed to the country of the
(Jerascns which is over against Galilee.

27 And when he was come forth to the
hind, there met him a certain man that had
a devil now a very long time, and he did
wear no clothes, neither did he tarry in
house, but in the monuments. ffl And as be
saw Jesus, he fell down before him: and
crying out with a great voice, he said, What
is to me and thee, .Jesus son of God most
high? 1 beseech thee do not torment me.
• For he commanded the unclean spirit to
go forth out of the man. For many times
he caught him, and he was bound with
chains, and kept with fetters ; and breaking
the bonds, was driven of the devil into the
deserts. 3° And Jesus asked him, saying,
What is thy name? But lie said. Legion;
because many devils were entered into him.
31 And they besought him that he would not
command them to go into the depth. BAnd
t hero was there a herd of many swine feeding
on the mountain : and they desired him that
he would permit them to enter into them.
And he permitted them. "The devils there-
fore went forth out of the man, and entered
into the swine: anil the herd with violence
went headlong into the lake, and was stilled.
•^ Which when the swineherds saw done,
they lied : and told into the city and into the
towns. "And they went forth to see that
which was done: and they came to Jesus,
and found the man out of whom the devils
were gone forth, sitting at his feet, clothed,

and well in his wits, and they were afraid.
116 And I hey also that had seen, told them how
he had been made whole from the legion.
3'"And all the multitude of the country of
the Qeraeena besought him to depart lrom

them: for they were taken with great fear.
And he going up into the boat, returned.
88 And the man out of whom the devils were
departed, desired him that he might he with
him. But Jesus dismissed him, sa\ ing, " Re-
turn into thy house, and tell how great things
( tod hath done to thee. And he went through
the whole city, preaching how groat things
Jesus had done to him.

40 And it came to pass, when Jesus was re-
turned, the multitude received him; and all
were expecting him. 41 And behold there
came a man whose name was Jairus, and he
was Prince of the Synagogue ; and he fell at
the feet of Jesus, desiring him that he would
inter into his house, c because he had an
only daughter, almost twelve years old, and
she was a dying. And it chanced, whilst he
went, he was thronged of the multitude*.

4:1 And there was a certain woman in a flux
of blood, from twelve yean past, which had
bestowed all her substance upon Physicians,
neither could she be cured of any. 44 She

Et cum egressus csset ad terrain, occurrit i 11 1 vir 27
quidam, qui habebat dannonium jam temporibus multis,
et vestimento non induebatur, Deque in domo manebat,
sed in monumentis. Is, ut vidit Jesum, procidit ante 28
ilium: et exclamans voce magna, dixit: Quid mihi et
tibi est, Jesu Fili Dei Altissimi? obaecro te, nc me tor-
qucas. Pra^cipiebat enim spiritui inniiundo ut exiiet 29
ab homine. Multis enim temporibus arripiebat ilium,
et vinciebatur catenis et compedibus eustoditus, et ruptis
vinculis agebatur a chemonio in deserta. Interrogavit 30
autem ilium Jesus, dicens: Quod tibi nomen est? At
ille dixit: Legio; quia intraverant daunonia multa in
cum. Et rogabant ilium ne imperaret illis ut in 3 1
abyssum ircnt. Erat autem ibi grcx porcorum mul- ^,2
torum pascentium in monte: et rogabant cum, ut
permitteret eis in illos ingrcdi. Et permisit illis.
Exierunt ergo damionia ab homine, et intraverunt in 33
porcos: et impetu abiit grex per prsecepa in Btagnum,
et suffocatus est. Quod ut viderunt factum qui pasce- 34
bant, fugerunt, et nunciaverunt in civitatem et in villas.
Exierunt autem videre quod factum est, et vencrunt ad 35
Jesum: ctinvenerunthomincm sedentem,a quodaunonia

quo damionia exicrant, ut cum eo esset. Dimisit autem
cum Jesus, dicens: Eedi in domum tuam, et nana 39
quanta tibi fecit Deus. Et abiit per universam civita-
tem, pnedicana quanta illi feciaset Jesus.

Factum est autem cum rediiaset Jesus, excepit ilium 40

the kingdom of God ; and them that had
need of euro he healed. '- And the day began
to draw towards an end. And the Twelve
coming near, said to him, Dismiss the multi-
tudes, that going into towns and villages
here about, they may have lodging, and find
meats ; because here we are in a desert place.
"And he said to them, Give you them to
eat. But they said. We have no more but
Jive loaves and two fishes : unless perhaps we
should go and buy meats for all this multi-
tude. 14 And there were men almost five
thousand. And he said to his disciples,
Make them sit down by companies fifty and
fifty. ls And so tliey did. And they made
all sit down. lf| And taking the five loaves
and the two fishes,he looked up unto heaven,
and blessed them; and he brake, and dis-
tributed to his disciples, for to set before the
multitudes. 17 And they did all eat, and had
their fill. And there was taken up that
which remained to them, twelve baskets of
fragments.

18 And it came to pass, when he was alone
praying, his disciples also were with him:
and he asked them, saying, Whom do the
multitudes say that I am? 19But they an-
swered, and said, John the Baptist; and
some, Elias ; but some, that one of the Pro-
phets before time, is risen. -"And hesaidto
tliem, But whom say je that 1 am? Simon
Peter answering, said, The Ciikist of God.
-1 Bui he rebuking them, commanded that
they should tell this to no man, '"saying.
That the son of man must suffer many
tilings, and be rejected of the Ancients and
chief Priests and Scribes, and be killed, and
the third day rise again.

1:3 And he said to all, Tf any man will come
after me, let him deny himself, and take up
his cross daily, and follow me. 2: For he
that will save his life, shall lose it: for he
that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save
it. -■' For what profit hath ■ man if lie gain
the whole world, and lose himself, and east
away himself? M For he that shall he
ashamed of me and of my words, him the
Son of man shall be ashamed of, when he
shall come in his majesty, and his father's,
and of the holy Angels. '-' And I say to you
assuredly, There be some standing here that
shall not taste death, t ill tliev see the kingdom
of God.

88 And it came to pass after these words
almost eight days, and he took Peter and
.lames and John, and went into a mountain
to pray. "' And whilst he prayed, the shape
of his countenance was altered; and his
raiment while and glistering. :i" And behold
two men tallied with him. And the\ wen'

Petrus dixit: Christum Dei. At illc increpans illos, 21

John had seen it, they said, Lord, wilt thou
we say that fire comedown from heaven, and
consume them ? H And turning, he rebuked
them, saying. You know not of what spirit
you are. 5''The son of man came not to
destroy souls, but to save. And they went
into another town.

6" And it came to pass as they walked in
the way, a certain man said to him, I will
follow thee whithersoever thou goest. ^ Jesus
said to him, The foxes have holes, and the
fowls of the air, nests: but t lie son of man
hath not where to repose his head. 5'Uut
he said to another, Follow me. And he Baid,
Lord, permit me first to go, and to bury my
father. 6!lAnd Jesus said to him, Let the
flead bury their dead : but go thou, set forth
the kingdom of God. "And another said,
1 will follow thee, Lord ; but permit me first
to take my leave of them that arc at home.
f2Jesus said to him, No man putting his
band to the plough, and looking back, is apt
for the kingdom of God.

And after this our Lord designed also
other seventy- two : and he sent them two
and two before bis face into every city and
place whither himself would come. 2 And he
said to them, The harvest truly is much: but
the workmen few. Desire, therefore, the lord
of the harvest, that he send workmen into
bis harvest. 3Go: behold I send you as
lambs among wolves. 4 Carry not purse, nor
Bcrip, nor shoes : and salute nobody by the
way. 5 Into whatsoever house you enter, first
say, Peace to this house ; 6and if the son of
peace be there, your peace shall rest upon
him : but if not, it shall return to you. 'And
in the same house tarry you, eating and
drinking such things as they have. For the
workman is worthy of his hire. Keniovenot
from house to house. 8And into what city
soever you enter, and they receive you, eat
such things as are set before you: 9and cure
the sick that are in it, and Bay to tin in, The
kingdom of God is come nigh upon you.

10 And into whatsoever city you enter, and
they receive you not, going forth into the
streets thereof, say, "The dust also of your
city, that cleaveth to us, we do wipe nil'
against you: yet this know ye, that the
kingdom of God is at hand. '- 1 say to you,
it shall be more tolerable for Sodom in that
day, than for that city. •Woe to thee, C'oro-
Eaim: woe to thee, Deth-saida: for if in Tyre
and Sidon had been wrought the miracles
that have been wrought in you, they had done
penance, sitting in sackcloth and ashes, long
ago. " Bui it shall lie more tolerable for
Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for
you. ''And thou, Capliarnaum, that art ex-
alted unto heaven: thou shalt- be thrust
down, even unto hell. 16lle that heareth

you, heareth me: and he that despiseth you,
despiscth me. Ami he that despiseth me,
despiseth him that sent uie.

ejus Jacobus et Joannes, dixerunt: Domine, vis dicimus
ut ignis descendat de coelo, et consumat illos? Et con- 55
versus inerepavit illos, dicens: Xcscitis cujus spiritus
estis. Filius hominis non venit animas perdere, sed 56
Balvare. Etabierunt in aliud castellum.

Factum est autem, ambulantibus illis in via, dixit 57
quidam ad ilium : Sequar te quocumque ieris. Dixit 58
illi Jesus: Vulpes foveas habent, et volucres cceli nidos:
Filius autem hominis non liabet ubi caput reclinet.
Ait autem ad altemm: Sequere me. Ille autem dixit: 59
Domine, permitte mihi primum ire, et sepelire patrem
mcum. Dixitque ei Jesus: Sine ut mortui sepeliant 60
mortuos suos: tu autem vade, etannuncia regnum Dei.
Et ait alter: Sequar te, Domine, sed permitte mihi 61
primum renunciare his, quaj domi sunt. Ait ad ilium 62
Jesus: Kemo mittens manum suam ad aratrum, et
respiciens retro, aptus est regno Dei.

Post hyec autem designavit Dominus et alios septua- 10
ginta duos: et misit illos binos ante faciem suam in
omnem civitatem et locum, quo erat ipse venturus.
Et dicebat illis: Mtssis quidem multa, operarii autem 2

apud illos sunt: dignus est enim operarius mercede sua.
Nolitc transire de domo in domum. Et in quamcumque 8

regnum Dei. Dico vobis, quia Sodomis in die ilia 12
remissiua erit, quam illi civitati. Vse tibi Corozain, 13
V83 tibi Bethsaida: quia si in Tyro et Sidone facta
fuissent virtutes, qua' facte sunt in vobis, olim in cilicio
et cinere sedentes pceniterent. Verumtamen Tyro, et 14
Sidoni remissiua erit in judicio, quam vobis. Et tu 15

Bpernit, me spernit. Qui autem me spernit, spernit
eum, qui misit me.

Luke X. 17—39.

17 Reversi sunt autem septuaginta duo cum gaudio,
dicentes: Domine, etiam dsemonia subjiciuntur nobis

18 in nomine tuo. Et ait illis: Videbam Satanam sicut

19 fulgur de ccelo cadentem. Ecce dedi vobis potestatem
calcandi supra serpentes et scorpiones et super omnem

20 virtutem inimici : et nihil vobis nocebit. Verumtamen
in hoc nolite gaudere quia spiritus vobis subjiciuntur:
gaudere autem quod nomina vestra scripta sunt in ccelis.

2 1 In ipsa hora exultavit Spiritu sancto, et dixit : Con-
fiteor tibi, pater, Domine coeli et terrae, quod abscondisti
haec a sapientibus, et prudentibus, et revelasti ea par-
vulis. Etiam, Pater; quoniam sic placuit ante te.

22 Omnia mihi tradita sunt a Patre meo. Et nemo scit
quis sit Filius, nisi Pater : et quia sit Pater, nisi Filius,

23 et cui voluerit Filius revelare. Et conversus ad dis-
cipulos suos, dixit: Bead oculi, qui vident qua3 vos

24 videtis. Dico enim vobis, quod multi prophetai, et
reges voluerunt videre qua? vos videtis, et non viderunt :
et audire qua; auditis, et non audierunt.

25 Et ecce quidam Legisperitus surrexit tentans ilium,
et dicens: Magister, quid faciendo vitam asternam

26 possidebo? At ille dixit ad eum : In lege quid scrip-

27 turn est? quomodo legis? Ille respondens dixit : Di!

28 mente tua: et proximum tuum sicut teipsum. Dixitque
29 illi: Kectc respondisti: hoc fac, et vives. ille autem

volens justificare seipsum, dixit ad Jesum : Et quis est

tempting him, and saying, Master, by doing

Mary, who sitting nlso at our Lord's feet,
heard his word. ''"But Martha was busy
about much service; who stood and said,
Lord, hast thou no care that my sister hath
left me alone to serve? speak to her, there-
fore, that she help me. 41 And our Lord an-

art careful, and art troubled about very many

hath chosen t lie best part, which shall not be

And it came to pass, when he was in a cer-
tain place, praying, as he ceased, one of liis
Disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray,
as John also taught his Disciples. '-'And he
said to them, When you pray, say. Father,
sanctified be thy name. Thy kingdom come,
3 Our daily bread give us this day, 4 and for-
give us our sins, for because ourselves also do
forgive every one that in in debt to us. And
lead its not into temptation. 5 And he said
to them. Which of you shall have a friend,
and shall go to him at midnight, and shall
say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,
6 because a friend of mine is come out of his
way to me, and 1 have not what to set before
him: 7 and he from within answering saith,
Trouble me not, now the door is shut, and
my children are with me in bed : I cannot
rise and give thee. s And if he shall persevere
knocking. I say to you, although he will not
rise and give him because he is his friend, yet
for his importunity he will rise, and give him
as many as he needeth. 'And I say to you,
Ask, and it shall he given you ; seek, and you
shall find ; knock, and it shall be opened to
you. I0 For every one that asketh, receiveth ;
and he that seekcth, findeth ; and to him
that knockcth, it shall he opened. "And
which of you, if he ask his father bread, will
lie give him a stone? or a ii-h, will he for a
fish give him a serpent ? 1;Or if he ask an
egg, will he reach him a scorpion? 1!If you
then being naught, know how to give good
gifts to your children, how much more will
your fatlier from heaven give, the good spirit
to them that ask him ?

14 And he was easting out a devil, and that
was dumb. And when he had cast out the
devil, the dumb snake: and the multitudes
marvelled. 15And certain of them said, In
Beel-zebub the prince of Devils he casteth
out Devils. 16 And other tempting, asked of
him a sign from heaven. '" lint lie, seeing
their cogitations, said to them, Every king-

self, how shall his kingdom stand P because
you say that in Beel-zebub I do oaa

sit, propter improbitatcm tamen ejus surget, et dabit
illi quot quot habet necessarios. Et ego dico vobis:
Petite, et dabitur vobis: qiuerite, et invenietis: pulsate, 9
et aperietur vobis. Omnis enim, qui petit, aceipit: et 10
qui qwerit, invenit: et pulsanti aperietur. Quia autem 11

generation : it asketli a sign, and a sign shall
not be given it, but the sign of Jonas the
Prophet. :0Foras Jonas was a sign to the
Kinevites : so shall the Son of man also be to

because she came from the ends of the earth

they did penance at the preaching of Jonas ;

but these things you ought to have done,
and not to omit tho9e. a Woe to you, Phari-
sees, because you love the first chairs in the
synagogues, and salutations in t lie market-
place. ** Woe to you, because you are as
monuments that appear not, and men walking
over, aro not aware.

43 And one of the Lawyers answering, saith
to him, Master, in saying these things, thou
sneakest to our reproach also. <6 But lie said,
Woe to you, Lawyers, also : because you load
men with burdens which they cannot bear,
and yourselves touch not the packs with one
of your fingers. 47 Woe to you that build the
monuments of the Prophets: and your fa-
thers did kill them. ^ Surely you do testify
that you consent to the works of your fathers :
because they indeed did kill them, and you
build their sepulchres. *For tins cause the
wisdom also of God said, I will send to them
Prophets and Apostles, and of them they
will kill and persecute: M that the blood of
all the Prophets that was shed from the
making of the world, may he required of this
generation, 51 from the blood ot Abel unto
the blood of Zachariethat was slain between
the altar and the temple. Yea, I say to you,
it shall be required of (his generation. 5- Woe
to you, Lawyers, because you have taken
away the key of knowledge: yourselves have
not entered, and those that did enter you
have prohibited. 51 And when he said these
things to them, the Pharisees and the Law-
yers began vehemently to urge him, and to
6top his mouth about many things, 5I lying in
wait for him, and seeking to catch something
of Ins mouth, that they might accuse him.

And when great multitudes stood about
him, so that they trode one another, he
began to say to his Disciples, Take good
heed of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is
hypocrisy. 'For nothing is hid, that shall
not be revealed : nor secret, that shall not
be known. "For the things that you have
said in darkness, shall be said in the light:
and that which you have spoken into the ear
in the chambers, shall be preached in the
housetops. 'And I Bay to you my friends,
I'.e not afraid of I hem that kill the body, and
after this have no more to do. s Put I will
shew you whom ye shall fear: fear him who
after he hath killed, hath power to cast into
hell; yea, I say to you, fear him. '' Are not

and prepared not himself, and did not ac-
cording to his will: shall be beaten with
many stripes. 48 Hut he that knew not, and
did things worthy of stripes: shall be beaten
with few. And every one to whom much was
given, much shall be required of him : and
to whom they committed much, more will
they demand of him. 4I I came to east fire
on the earth : and what will I, hut that it be
kindled? 5U Hut I have to be baptized with
a baptism: and how am I straitened until

6 And he said this similitude: A certain
man had a tig-tree planted in his vineyard,
and he came seeking for fruit on it, and found
not. 7 And he said to the dresser of the vine-
yard, Lo, it is three years since I come seek-
ing for fruit upon this fig-tree : and I find
not. Cut it down, therefore: whereto doth
it also occupy the ground? 8But he an-
swering saith to him, Lord, let it alone this
year also, until I dig about, it, and dung it ;
9 and if happily it. yield fruit: but if not,
hereafter thou shalt cut it down.

10 And he was teaching in their synagogue
on the Sabbaths. nAnd, behold, a woman

she was made straight, and glorified God.
14 And the Archsynagogue answering (because
lie had indignation that, Jesus bad cured on
the Sabbath), said to the multitude, Six days
there are wherein you ought to work ; in them
therefore come, and be cured: and not in the
Sabbath day. "And our Lord answering to
him, said, Hypocrite, dotli not every one of

them, -M Strive to enter by the narrow gate:
beoaose many, I say to you, shall seek to
enter, and shall not be able. -5 But when
the good man of the house shall enter in,
and shut the door, and you shall begin to
stand without, and knock at the door, saying,
Lord, open to us: and he answering snail say
to you, 1 know you not whence you are:
'-'■then you shall begin to say, We did eat
before thee and drink, and in our streets
dulst thou teach. -'" And he shall say to you,
I know you not whence you are, depart from
me all ye workers of iniquity. "There shall
be weeping and gnashing of teeth : when you
shall see Abraham and Isaac and .Jacob, and
all the Prophets in the kingdom of God, and

from the East and the West and the North
and the South: and shall sit down in the
kingdom of God. ^And behold, they are
hut that shall be first, and they be first that
shall be last.

31 The same day there came certain of the
Pharisees, saying to him, Depart, and get
thee hence, because Herod will kill thee.
•'-And he said to them, Go, and tell that fox,
Behold I cast out devils, and perfect cures
this day and to-morrow, and the third day I
am consummate. :a But yet I must walk
this day and to-morrow and the day following,
because it cannot be that a Prophet perish
out of Jerusalem. 34 .Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
which killest the Prophets, and stonest
them that are sent to thee, how often would
1 gather thy children as the bird doth her
brood under her wings, and thou wouldest
not? ^Behold your house shall be left
d "ert to you. And I say to you, that you
shall not, see me till it come when you shall
Bay, Blesse I is ho that Cometh in the name
of our Lord.

And it came to pas9 when Jesus entered in-
to the house of a certain Prince of the Phari-
sees upon the Sabbath to eat bread, and they
watched him. - And behold there was a cer-
tain man before him that had the dropsy.
3 And Jesus answering, spake to the Lawyers
and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to cure on
the Sabbath? 'But they held their peace;
but he taking him, healed him, ami sent him
away. 'And answering them hesaid.Whioh
of you shall have an ass or an OX fallen into
a pit: and will not incontinent draw him
out on the Sabbath day ? ' And they could
not answer him to these things.

7 And he spako to them also t lint were
invited a parable, marking how they chose
the first seats at the table, laying to them,
s When thou art invited to u marriage, sit
not down in the first place, lest perhaps a
more honourable than thou he invited of
him i 'and he that hade thee and him, come
and say to thee, (iive this man place: and
then thou begin with shame to take the last
place. '" Hut when thou art bidden, go, sit
down in the lowest place: that when he
that invited thee cometh, he may Bay to
thee, Friend, sit up higher: then shalt thou
have glory before them that sit at table with
thee; ll because every one thai exalteth him-

II shall be humbled : and he that huuibleth
himself, shall be exalted.

1 3 forte te et ipsi reinvitent, et fiat tibi retributio. Sed

15 Haec cum audisset quidam de simul discumbentibus,

16 At ipse dixit ei : Homo quidam fecit coenam magnam,

17 et vocavit multos. Et misit servum suum hora coenae

20 me excusatum. Et alius dixit : Uxorem duxi et ideo

21 non possum venire. Et reversus servus nunciavit haec

Exi cito in plateas et vicos civitatis: et pauperes, ac

12 And he said to him also that had invited
him, When tliou makest a dinner or a supper
call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor
kinsmen, nor thy neighbours that are rich :
lest perhaps they also invite thee again, and
recompense be made to thee. 13But when
thou makest a feast, call the poor, feeble, lame
and blind, 14and thou shalt be blessed, be-
cause they have not to recompense thee : for
recompense shall be made thee in the re-
surrection of the just. 13 When one of them
that sat at the table with him had heard these
things, he said to him. Blessed is he that
shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.

13 But he said to him, A certain man made
a great supper, and called many. 17 And he
sent his servant at the hour of supper to say
to the invited, That they should come, be-
cause now all things are ready. 1BAnd they
began all at once to make excuse. The first
said to him, I have bought a farm, and I
must needs go forlh and see it: I pray thee
hold me excused. 19 And another said, I have
bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove
them: I pray thee hold me excused. '-"And
another said, I have married a wife, and
therefore I cannot come. -1 And the servant
returning told these things to his lord. Then
the master of the house being angry, said to
his servant, Go forth quickly into the streets
and lanes of the city, and the poor, and feeble,
and blind, and lame, bring in hither. -2And
the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou
didst command, and yet there is place. aAnd
the lord said to the servant, Go forth into the
ways and hedges: and compel them to enter,
that my house may be filled. 24 But I say to
you, that none of those men that were culled,
shall taste my supper.

aAnd great multitudes went with him:
and turning, he said to them, "If any man
come to me, and hatetli not his father and
mother, and wife and children, and brethren
and sisters, yea and his own life besides, lie
cannot be my disciple. ;7And he thai doth
not bear his cross and come after me, cannot

And there approached Publicans and sin-
ner* unto him tor to hear him. 2 And the
Pharisees and the Scribes murmured saying,
That this man receivetli sinners, and eatel li
with them. 3 And he spake to them this
parable, saying, 4 What man of you having
an hundred sheep: and if lie hath lost one
of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine
in the desert, and goeth after that which was
lost until he find it? 5 And when he hath
found it, layeth it upon his shoulders re-
joicing : ''and coming home, oalleth together
his friends and neighbours, saying to them,
Rejoice with me, because I have found my
sheep that was lost ? 7l say to you, that even
so there shall be joy in heaven upon one
sinner that doth penance, than upon ninety-
nine just that need not penance. 8 Or what
woman having ten groats : if she lose
one groat, doth she not light a candle, and
sweep the house, and seek diligently, until
she and? 9 And when she hath found,
calleth together her friends and neighbours,
saying, Kejoice with me, because I have
found the groat which I had lost? 10 So, I
say to you, there shall be joy before the
Angels of God upon one sinner that doth
penauce.

11 And he said, A certain man had two sons :
'-and the younger of them said to his father,
Father, give me the portion of substance that
belongethto me. And he divided unto them
the substance. 1:,And not many days after,
the younger son, gathering all his things
together, went from home into a far country:
and there he wasted his substance, living
riotously. ,4And alter he had spent all,
there fell a sore famine in that country, and
he began to be in need. 15 And he went, and
cleaved to one of the citizens of that country.
And he sent him into Ins farm to feed swine.
"'And he would fain have tilled his belly of
the husks that the swine did eat i and nobody
gave unto him. '^And returning to himself
lie said, How many of my father's hirelings
have abundance of bread: and I here perish
for famine? ls I will arise, and will goto my
lather, and say to him, Father, I have sinned
against heaven and before thee: ''1 am not
now worthy to Jbe called thy son: make me
as one of thy hirelings. "And rising up he
came to his father. And when he was yet
far off, his father saw him, and was moved
with mercy, and running to him fell upon
bis neck, and kissed him. '■' And his son said
to him. Father, I have sinned against heaven
and before thee, 1 am not now worthy to be
called thy son. ": And the father said to his
servants. Quickly bring forth the first stole,
and do it on him, and put a ring upon his
hand, and shoes upon his feet : ::t and brink'
the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us cat, ami
make merry : -4 because this my son was dead,

25 Erat autem Alius ejus senior in agro: et cum veniret,
et appropinquaret domui, audivit symphoniam, et

26 chorum : et vocavit unum de servis, et interrogavit

27 quid haec essent. Isque dixit illi : Frater tuus venit,
et occidit pater tuus vitulum saginatum, quia salvum

28 ilium recepit. Indignatus est autem, et nolebat introire.

29 Pater ergo illius egressus, coepit rogare ilium. At ille
respondens, dixit patri suo: Ecce tot annis servio tibi,
et nunquam mandatum tuum praeterivi, et nunquam

30 dedisti mihi hoedura ut cum amicis meis epularer: sed
postquam filius tuus hie, qui devoravit substantiam
suam cum meretricibus, venit, occidisti illi vitulum

3 1 saginatum. At ipse dixit illi : Fili, tu semper mecura

32 es, et omnia mea tua sunt: epulari autem, et gaudere
oportebat, quia frater tuus hie, mortuus erat, et revixit :
perierat, et inventus est.

1 6 Dicebat autem et ad discipulos suos : Homo quidam
erat dives, qui habebat villicum : et hie diffamatus est

2 apud ilium quasi dissipasset bona ipsius. Et vocavit
ilium, et ait illi: Quid hoc audio de te? redde rationem

3 villicationis tuae: jam enim non poteris villicare. Ait
autem villicus intra se : Quid faciam quia dominus meus
aufert a me villicationem? fodere non valeo, mendi-

4 care erubesco. Scio quid faciam, at, cum amotus fuero

5 a villicatione, recipiant me in domos suas. Convocatis
itaque singulis debitoribus domini sui, dicebat primo:

6 Quantum debes domino meo? At ille dixit: Centum
cados olei. Dixitque illi: Accipe cautionem tuam;

7 et sede cito, scribe: quinquaginta. Deinde alii dixit:

and is revived : was lost, and is found. And
they began to make merry. ^ But his elder
son was in the field, and when he came
and drew nigh to the house, he heard music
and dancing : ;6 and he called one of the
servants, and asked what these things should
be. ^And he said to him, Thy brother is
come, and thy father hath killed the fatted
calf, because he hath received him safe. '^ But
he had indignation, and would not go in.
His father therefore going forth, began to
desire him. a But he answering said to his
father, Behold, so many years do I serve
thee, and I never transgressed thy command-
ment, and thou didst never give me a kid to
make merry with my friends: *° but after
that thy son, this that hath devoured his
substance with whores, is come, thou hast
killed for him the fatted calf. 31 But he said
to him, Son, thou art always with me, and all
my things are thine. 3-But it behoved us to
make merry and be glad, because this thy
brother was dead, and is revived ; was lost,
and is found.

And he said also to his Disciples, There was
a certain rich man that had a bailiff: and he
was ill reported of unto him, as he that had
wasted his goods. 2 And he called him, and
said to him. What hear I this of theep ren-
der account of thy bailiship: for now thou
canst no more be bailiff. a And the bailiff said
within himself, What shall 1 do, because my
lord taketh away from me the bailiship?
dig I am not able, to beg I am ashamed. 4I
know what I will do, that when I shall be
removed from the bailiship, they may re.
ceive me into their houses. 6 Therefore call-
ing together every one of his lord's debtors,
he s:iid to the first, How much dost thou owe
my lord? 6But he suit 1 1, An hundred pipes
of oil. And he said to him, Take thy bill :
and sit down, quickly write fifty. 'After
that he said to another, But thou, how
much dost thou owe? Who said, an hun-
dred quarters of wheat. Ho said to him.
Take thy bill, and write eighty. 8And the
lord praised the bailiff of iniquity, because
he bad done wisely: for the children oft Ins
world are wiser than the children of light
in their generation. 'And I say to you,
M eke unto you friends of the mammon
of iniquity: that when you Fail, they
may receive you into the eternal taber-
nacles. "'He thai is faithful in the Least,

knoweth your hearts, because that which is
high to men, is abomination before God.
16 The law and the prophets, unto John :
from that time the kingdom of God is evan-
gelized, and everyone doth force toward it.
'<■ And it is easier for heaven and earth to
pass, than one tittle of the law to fall.
"Every one that dismisseth his wife, and
marrieth another, committeth adultery: and
lie that marrieth her that is dismissed from
her husband, committeth adultery.

,9 There was a certain rich man, and he was
clothed with purple and silk : and he fared
every day magnifieally. 2° And there was a
certain beggar called Lazarus, that lay at
his gate, full of sores : 21 desiring to be filled
of the crumbs, that fell from the rich man's
table: but the dogs also came, and licked
his sores. MAnd it came to puss that the
beggar died, and was carried of the Angels
into Abraham's bosom. And the rich man
also died; and he was buried in hell. ^ And
lifting uii his eyes, when he was in torments,
lie saw Abrah mm afar off, and Lazarus in
his bosom: "and he crying said, Father
Abraham, have mercy on me, and send La-
zarus that he may dip the tip of his finger
into water, for to cool my toncue, because
I Min tormented in this flame. ^And Abra-
ham said to him, Son, remember that thou
didst receive good things in thy lifetime,
and Lazarus likewise evil: but now he is
comforted, and thou art tormented. '-^ And
beside all these things, between us and you
there is fixed a great chaos : that they which
will pass from hence to you, may not, nei-
ther go from thence hither. -7 And he said,
Then, father, 1 beseech thee that thou
wouldest send him unto my father's house,
for I have five brethren ; -Rfor to testify unto
them, lest they also come into this place of
torments. -9 And Abraham said to him,
They have Moyses and the Prophets: let
them hear them. 3" But he said, No, father
Abraham, but if some man shall go from the
dead to them, they will do penance. ;" And
he said to him, If they hear not Moyses and
tin- Prophets, neither if one shall rise again
from the dead, will they believe.

And he said to his Disciples, It is impos-
sible that scandals should not come : but woe
to him by whom thc\ come. 2 It is more
profitable for him, if a millstone be put about
his neck, and he be cast into the sea, than
that lie scandalize one of these little ones.
:l Look well to yourselves, If thy brother sin
against thee, rebuke him : and if he do
penance, forgive him. 4 And if he sin against
thee seven times in a day, and seven times
in a day be converted unto thee, saying, It
repi nteth me, forgive him.

5 And the Apostles said to our Lord, In-
crease faith in us. 6 And our lord said. If
you had faith like to a mustard seed, you
might say to this mulberry tree, be thou
rooteil up, and he transplanted into the sea :
and it would obey you. ? And which of

cattle, t lint will say to him returning out of

corda vestra : quia quod hominibus altum est, abominatio
est ante Deum. Lex et prophetae, usque ad Joannem: 16
ex eo regnum Dei evangelizatur, et omnis in illud vim
faeit. Facilius est autem coelum, et terram praeterire, 17
quam dc Lege unum apicem cadere. Omnis, qui 18

qui dimissam a viro ducit, meechatur.

Homo quidam crat dives, qui induebatur purpura et 19

mendicus, nomine Lazarus, qui jacebat ad januam ejus,
ulceribus plenus, cupiens saturari de micis, quje cade- 2 1
bant de mensa divitis, et nemo illi dabat: sed et canes
veniebant, et lingebant ulcera ejus. Factum est autem 22
ut moreretur mendicus, et portaretur ab Angelis in
sinum Abrahae. Mortuus est autem et dives, et sepultus
est in inferno. Elevans autem oculos suos, cum esset 23
in tormentis, vidit Abraham a longe, et Lazarum in
sinu ejus: et ipse damans dixit: Pater Abraham, 24
miserere mei, et mitte Lazarum ut intingat extremum
digiti sui in aquam ut refrigeret linguam mcam, quia
crucior in hac flamma. Et dixit illi Abraham: Fili, 25
recordare quia recepisti bona in vita tua, et Lazarus
similiter mala: nunc autem hie consolatur, tu vero
cruciaris. Et in his omnibus inter nos et vos chaos 26
magnum firmatum est: ut hi, qui volunt hinc transire
ad vos, non possint, neque inde hue transmeare. Et ait : 27
Rogo ergo te, pater, ut mittas cum in domum patris
mei. Habeo enim quinque fratres, ut tcstetur illis, ne 28
et ipsi veniant in hunc locum tormentorum. Et ait illi 29
Abraham : Habcnt Moysen, et prophctas: radiant illos.
At illc dixit: Non, pater Abraham: sed si quis ex 30
mortuis ierit ad eos, pcenitcntiam agent. Ait autem 31
illi: Si Moysen, et prophctas non audiunt, neque si
quis ex mortuis resurrexerit, credent.

Et ait ad discipulos suos: Impossible est ut non 17
veniant scandala: vae autem illi, per quern veniunt.
Utiliua est illi si lapis molaris imponatur circa collum 2
ejus, et projiciatur in mare, quam ut scandalizet unum
de pusillis istis. Attendite robis; Si peccaverit in te 3
(rater tuns, increpa ilium: et si poenxtentiam cgcrit,
dimitte illi. Et si Beptiefl in die peccaverit in te, et 4
septics in die conversus fucrit ad te, dicens: Pcenitet
me, dimitte illi.

Et dixerunt Apostoli Domino: Adauge nobis (idem. 5

10 quae ei imperaverat? Xon puto. Sic et vos,cum feceritis
omnia quaB prsecepta sunt vobis, dicite: Servi inutiles
sumus : quod debuimus facere, fecimus.

11 Et factum est, dum iret in Jerusalem, transibat per

12 mediam Samariam, et Galilaeam. Et cum ingrederetur
quoddam castellum, occurrerunt ei decern viri leprosi,

13 qui steterunt a longe: et levaverunt vocem, dicentes:

14 Jesu prseceptor, miserere nostri. Quos ut vidit, dixit:
Ite, ostendite vos sacerdotibus. Et factum est, dum

15 irent, mundati sunt. Unus autem ex illis, ut vidit quia
mundatusest, rejeressus est, cum maima voce magnificans

16 Deum, et cecidit in faciem ante pedes ejus, gratias
I7agens: et hie erat Samaritanus. Respondens autem

Jesus, dixit: Xonne decern mundati sunt? et novem

1 8 ubi sunt ? Xon est inventus qui rediret, et daret gloriam

19 Deo, nisi hie alienigena. Et ait illi: Surge, vade: quia
fides tua te salvum fecit.

20 Jnterrogatus autem a Pharisaeis: Quando venit reg-
num Dei? respondens eis, dixit: Xon venit regnum

21 Dei cum observatione : neque dicent: Ecce hie, aut
ecce illic. Ecce enim regnum Dei intra vos est.

22 Et ait ad discipulos suos: Venient dies quando
desideretis videre unum diem Filii hominis, et non

23 videbiti«. Et dicent vobis: Ecce hie, et ecce illic.

24 Nolite ire, neque sectemini. Xam, sicut fulgur coruscans

not to him, Make ready supper, and gird
thyself, and serve me whiles I eat and drink,
and afterward thou shalt eat and drink ?
9 Doth he give that servant thanks, fordoing
the things which lie commanded him ? 1UI
trow not. So you also, when you shall have
done all things that are commanded you,
say, We are unprofitable servants : we have
done that which we ought to do.

11 And it came to pass, as he went unto
Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of
Samaria and Galilee. ^And when he en-
tered into a certain town, there met him tea
men that were lepers, who stood afar off:
13 and they lifted up their voice, saving, Jesus,
master, have mercy on us. uWhom as he
saw, he said, Go, shew yourselves to the
Priests. Ami it came to pass, as they went,
they were made clean. »•> And one of them,
as he saw that he was made clean, went
back with a loud voice magnifying God ;
16 and he fell on his face before his feet,
civing thanks: and this was a Samaritan.
rAnd Jesus answering said, Were not ten
made clean? and where are the nine?
1-1 There was not found that returned, and
gave glory to God, but this stranger. lj And
he said to him, Arise, go thy ways : because
thy faith hath made thee safe.

:0 And being asked of the Pharisees, When
cometh the kingdom of God? he answered
them and said, The kingdom of God cometh
not with observation: 21 neither shall they
say, Lo here, or lo there, for, lo, the kingdom
of God is within you.

2-And he said to his Disciples, The days
will come when you shall desire to see ono
day of the Son of man : and you shall not
see. ^And they will say to you, Lo here,
and lo there. Go not, neither do ye follow
after. 24For even as the lightning that
lightened! from under heaven, unto those
parts that are under heaven, shinelh : so
shall the Son of man be in his day. -'Hut

31 Assumpsit autem Jesus duodecim, et ait illis: Ecce
ascendimus Ierosolymam, et consummabuntur omnia,
quae scripta sunt per prophetas de Filio hominis.

32 Tradetur enim Gentibus, et illudetur, et flagellabitur,

33 et conspuetur: et postquam flagellaverint, Occident

34 eum, et tertia die resurget. Et ipsi nihil horum intel-
lexerunt, et erat verbum istud absconditum ab eis, et
non intelligebant quae dicebantur.

35 Factum est autem, cum appropinquaret Jericho,

36 caecus quidam sedebat secus viam, mendicans. Et cum
audiret turbam praetereuntem, interrogabat quid hoc

37 esset. Dixerunt autem ei, quod Jesus Xazarenustransiret.

38 Et clamavit, dicens: Jesu fili David, miserere mei.

39 Et qui praeibant increpabant eum ut taceret. Ipse
vero multo magis clamabat: Fili David, miserere mei.

40 Stans autem Jesus jussit ilium adduci ad se. Et cum

41 appropinquaret, inteirogavit ilium, dicens: Quid ti!>i

42 vis faciam? At ille dixit: Domine, ut videam. Et

43 Jer-us dixit illi: Res-pice, fide- tua te salvum fecit. Et
confestim vidit, et i-equebatur ilium, ma^nificans Deum.
Et omnia piebfl ut vidit, dedit laudem Deo.

strokensad: because lie was very rich. 24And
Jesus seeing him stroken sad, said, How
hardly shall they that have money, enter into
the kingdom of God. :5For it is easier for a
camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than
for a ri -h man to enter into the kingdom of
God. a And they that heard, said, And who
can be saved? ^ He said to them, The things
that are impossible with men, are possible wit h
God. 2* And Peter said, Lo, we have left all
things, and have followed thee. * Who said
to them, Amen I say to you. There is no mau
that hath left house, or parents, or brethren,
or wife, or children for the kiugdom of God,
^and shall not receive much more in this
time, and inthe world to come life everlasting.

31 And Jesus took the Twelve, and said to
them, Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and
all things shall be consummated which were
written by the Prophets of the Son of man.
32 For he shall be delivered to the Gentiles,
and shall be mocked, and scourged, and spit
upon: ^and after they have scourged him,
they will kill him, and the third day he shall
rise again. 3,And they understood none of
these things, and this word was hid from
them, and they understood not the things
that were said.

35 And it came to pass, when he drew nigh
to Jericho, a certain blind man sate by the
way, begging. ^And when he heard the
multitude passing by, he asked what this
should be. 3; And they told him that Jesus
of Niizareth passed by. 3"A nd he cried, saying,
Jesus, son of David, have mercy upon me.
39 And they that went before, rebuked him,
that he should hold his peace. But he cried
much more. Son of David, have mercy upon
me. 'wAnd Jesus standing, commanded him
to be brought unto him. And when he was
come near, he asked him, '"saying, What wilt
thou that I do to thee? but he said, Lord,
that I may see. ^And Jesussaid to him,
Do thou see, thy faith hath made thee whole.
■"And forthwith he saw, and followed him,
magnifying God. And all the people, as they
snv it, gave praise to God.

And entering in he walked through Jeri-
cho. - And beiiold a man named Zaohaus:
and thia was a Prince of the Publicans, and
he rich. •'And he sought t<> »ee JeiUI what
he was; and he could not for the multitude,
because he was little of stature, 'And run-
ning before, he wen! ui> into ■ sycamore 1 ree
that he might see him, because he was to pass

by It. 6 And when he WSjS come to the place,

Jesus looking up, saw him, and said to him,

Zacbeeus, comedown in haste; because this

day I must abide in thy house, ''And hem

is made to this house; because that he also
is the son of Abraham. luFor the Son of
man is come to seek and to save that which
was lost.

"They hearing these things, he added and
spake a parable, for that he was nigh to Je-
rusalem, mid because they thought that
forthwith the kingdom of God should be
manifested. l2Ue said therefore, A certain
nobleman went into a far country to take to
himself a kingdom, and to return. 13And
culling his ten servants, lie gave them ten
pounds, and said to them, Occupy till I come.
'4 And his citizens hated him: and they sent,
a legacy after him, saying. We will not have
this man reign over us. ''And it came to
pass after he returned, having received his
Kingdom: and he commanded Ins servants
to be called, to whom he gave the money,
that he might know how much every man
had gained by occupying. ,6And the Erst
came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gotten
ten pounds. 17And he said to him, Well
fare thee, good servant, because thou hast
been faithful in a little, thou shalt have
power over ten cities. '8 And the second
came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath made
five pounds. w And he said to him, And be
thou over five cities. "And another came,
saying, Lord, lo here thy pound, which 1
have had laid up in a napkin: n for I feared
thee, because thou art an austere man; thou
takest up that thou didst not set down, and
thou rcapest that which thou didst not sow.
^Hesaith to him, By thine own mouth I
judge thee, naughty servant. Thou didst
know that I am an austere man, taking up
that I set not down, and reaping that which
I sowed not ; "and why didst thou not give
my money to the bank, and 1 coming might
eertes with usury have exacted it? 24And he
said to them that stood by, 'Jake the pound
away from him, and give it to him that hath
the ten pounds. aAii(l they said to him,
Lord, lie hath ten pounds. -r'15ut 1 Bay to
you, that to every one that hath shall be
given; and from him that hath not, that
also which he hath shall be taken from him,
27 But as for those mine enemies that would
not have me reign over them, bring them
hither; and kill them before me.

31 And having said these things, he went,
before ascending to Jerusalem. "And it
came to pass when lie was come nigh to
Bethphage and Bethania unto the mount
called Olivet, he sent two of his Disciples,
"saying, Go into the town which is over
against, into the which as you enter, you
shall find the colt of an ass tied, on which
no man ever hath sitten ; loose him, and
bring him. ;il And if any man ask you. Win-
loose you him ? You shall say thus to him,
because our Lord needeth his sen ice "And
they that were Bent went their ways, and
found as he said to them, the ooll standing.
"And when they loosed the colt, the owners
thereof said to them, Why loose you the
colt? :tl Bui they said, because our Lord
hath need of him. n' And they brought him
to Jesus. Ami casting their garments upon
the colt, they set Jesus thereupon. "And

Ikec illis audientibus, adjiciens dixit parabolam, eo 1 1
quod csset prope Jerusalem ; et quia existiinarent quod
confestim regnum Dei manifestaretur. Dixit ergo: 12
Homo quidam nobilis abiit in regionem longinquam

miui dum venio. Gives autem ejus odcrant eum: et 14
miserunt legationem post ilium, dicentes: Xolumushunc
regnare super nos. Et factum est ut rediret accepto reg- 1 5
no: et jussit vocari servos, quibus dedit pecuniam, ut
sciret quantum quisque negotiatus esset. Venit autem 16
primus dicens: Domine, mna tua decern mnas acqtiisivit.
Et ait illi : Euge bone serve, quia in modico fuisti lidelis, 1 7
eris potestatem habens super decern civitates. Et alter 1 cS
venit, dicens : Domine, mna tua fecit quinque mnas. Et 19
huic ait: Et tu esto super quinque civitates. Et alter 20
venit, dicens: Domine, ecce mna tua, quam habui reposi-
tamin sudario; timui enim te, quia homo austerus es: 21
tollis quod non posuisti, et metis quod non seminasti.
Dicit ei : De ore tuo te judico, serue nequam : sciebas 22
quod ego homo austerus sum, tollens quod non posui.
et metens quod non seminavi : et quare non dedisti 23
pecuniam meam ad mensam, utego veniena cum usuris
utique exegissem illam ? et astantibus dixit: Aui'erte 24
ab illo mnam, et date ilii, qui decern mnas habct. Et 25
dixerunt ei: Domine, habel decern mnas. Dico autem 26
vobis, quia omni habenti dabitur, et abundabit: ab eo
autem, qui non habet, et quod habet auferetur ab eo.
Verumtamen inimicos meos illos, qui noluerunt me 27
regnare super se, adducite hue: et interficite ante me.

Et his dictis, pnecedebat ascendens Ierosolvniam. 28
Et factum est, cum appropinquasset ad Bethphage, et 29
Bethaniam, ad montem, qui vocatui Oliveti, misit
duos discipulos suos, dicens: Ite in castellum, quod 30

verit: Quare Bolvitis? sic dicetis ei: Quia Dominus

erant: et invenerunt, sicut dixit illis, stantem pullum.
Solventibus autem iliis pullum, dixerunt domini (jus 33
ad illos: Quid solvitis pullum? At illi dixerunt: Quia 34
Dominus eum necessarium habet. Et duxerunt ilhun 35

descensum rnontis Oliveti, coeperunt omnes turban dis-
cipulorum gaudentes laudare Deimi voce magna super

38 omnibus, quas viderant, virtutibus, dicentes: Bene-
dictus, qui venit rex in nomine Domini, pax in coelo,

39 et gloria in excelsis. Et quidam Pharisaeorum de turbis
dixerunt ad ilium: Magister, increpa discipulos tuos.

40 Quibus ipse ait: Dico robis, quia si hi tacuerint,

41 lapides clamabunt. Et ut appropinquavit, videns civita-

45 Et ingressus in templum, ccepit ejicere vendentes in

46 illo, et ementes, dicens illis : Scriptum est : Quia domus

underneath in the way. 37And when he ap-
proached now to the descent of mount-
Olivet, all the multitudes of them that
descended, began with joy to praise God
with a loud voice, for all the miracles that.
they had seen, 3S saying, Blessed is he that
cometh king in the name of our Lord, peace
in heaven, and glory on high. ^And cer-
tain Pharisees of the multitudes said to him,
Master, rebuke thy disciples. 4" To whom
he said, I say to you, That if these hold
their peace, the stones shall cry. 41 And as he
drew near, seeing the city, he wept upon it,
saying, ^Because if thou also haclst known,
and that in this thy day, the things that
pertain to thy peace ; but now they are hid
from thine eyes. 4:iFor the days shall come
upon thee; and thy enemies shall encompass
thee with a trench, and enclose thee about,
and straiten thee on every side, ^and beat
thee flat to the ground, and thy children that
are in thee : and they shall not leave in thee
a stone upon a stone; because thou hast
not known the time of thy visitation.

45 And entering into the temple, he began
to cast out the sellers therein and the buyers,
46 saying to them, It is written, That my
house is a house of prayer. But you have
made it a den of thieves. 4^And he was
teaching daily in the temple. And the chief
Priests, and the Scribes, and the Princes of
the people sought to destroy him: 4Sand
they found not what to do to him ; for all
the people was suspense, hearing him.

And it came to pass, in one of the davs
when he was teaching the people in the
temple, and evangelizing, the chief Priests
and the Scribes with the ancients assembled,
2 and spake, saying to him, Till us, in what
power doest thou these things? or, who is
be that hath given thee this power? ''And
Jesus answering, said to them, I also will
ask you one word. Answer me, 4 The bap-
tism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?

yard said. What shall I do ? I will send my
beloved son; perhaps when they shall see
him, they will reverence him. M Whom when
the husbandmen saw, they thought witlim
themselves, saying, This is the heir, let us kill
him, that the heritage may be our's. i6 And
easting him forth out of the vineyard, they
killed aim. What therefore will the Lord of
the vineyard do to them? "'He will come, and
will destroy these husbandmen, and will give
the vineyard to others. Which they hearing,
said to him, God forbid. ''But he beholding
them, said, What is this, then, that is writ-
ten, The stone which the builders rejected,
the same is become into the head of the cor-
ner? 18 Every one that falleth upon this
stone, shall be quashed ; and upon whom it
shall fall, it shall break him to powder. 19And
the chief Priests and Scribes sought to lay
hands upon him that hour : and they feared
the people; for they knew that he spake
this similitude to them.

20 And watching, they sent spies which
should fain themselves just ; that they might
take him in his talk, and deliver him to the
principality and power of the Prsesident.
51 And they asked him, saying, Master, we
know that thou speakest and teacliest right-
ly; and (hou dost not. accept person, but
teaehest the way of God in truth. — Is it
lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or no?
-'Put considering their guile, he said to them,
Why tempt you me? '-'"Shew me a pinny.
Whose image hath it and inscription? They
answering said, Cesar's. ".And he said to
them, Pender therefore the things that are
Ca:sar's, to Cicsar : and the things that are
God's, to God. "And they could not repre-
hend his word before the people : and mar-
velling at his answer, they held their peace.

27 And there came certain of the Sadducees,
which deny that there is a resurrect ion : and
they asked him, a saying, Master, Moyses
save us in writing. If a man's brother die
having a wile, and he have no children, that
his brother take her to wile, and raise up
seed to his brother. -'There were therefore
seven brethren: and the first took a wife,
and died without children. "And the next
took her, and he died without children.
;i1 And the third took her. In like manner
also all the seven, and they left no seed, and
died. B Last of all the woman died also. BIn
the resurrection, therefore, whose wife shall
she be ol them ? since the seven had her to
wife. 3' And Jesus said to them. The child-
ren of this world marry, and are given in
marriage: :ts but thev that shall be counted
worthy of that world, and the resurrection
from the dead, neither marry, nor take wives,
•"'neither can they die any more, for they are
equal to Angels; and they are the sons of
God, seeing they are the sons of the resur-
rection. -'Put that the dead rise again,
Moyses also shewed, beside the bush, as lie

3f For God is not of the dead, but of the
living; for all live to him. ^ And certain of
the Scribes answering, said to him. Master,
thou hast said well. 40And further they
durst not ask him anything.

41 But he said to them, How say they that
Christ is the son of David? 42and David
himself saith in the book of psalms, The
Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right
hand, iZtill I put thine enemies the footstool
of thy feet ? 44 David then calleth him Lord ;
and how is he his son ?

45 And all the people hearing him, he said
to his Disciples, 46 Beware of the Scribes,
that will walk in robes, and love salutations
in the market-place, and the first chairs in the
synagogues, and the chief rooms in feasts ■
47 which devour widows' houses, feigning long
prayer. These shall receive greater damna-

their gifts tinto the treasury, rich persons.

I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast
more than all. 4 For all these of their alum-

'x And when you shall see Jerusalem com-
passed about with an army; then know that
the desolation thereof is at hand: "Minn
they that are in Jewry, let them flee to the
mountains ; and they in the midst thereof, let
them depart ; and they in the countries, let
them not enter into it; "for these are the
days of vengeance, that all things may be ful-
filled that are written. ^But woe to them
that are with child and that give suck in
those days; for there shall be great ailliction
upon the land, and wrath on this people.
-4 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword ;
and shall be led captive into all nations ; ana
Jerusalem shall be trodden of the Gentiles ;
till the times of nations be fulfilled.

25 And there shall be signs in the sun and
the moon and the stars; and upon earth
distress of nations, for the confusion of the
sound of sea and waves, ^men withering for
fear and expectation, what shall come upon
the whole world ; for the powers of heaven
shall be moved: -7 and then they shall see
the Son of man coming in a cloud with great
power and majesty. -^ JJut when these things
begin to come to pass, look up and lift up

know that, summer is nigh. 31So you also
when you shall see these things come to

not pass.

your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting
and drunkenness and cares of this life : and
that day come upon you suddenly. ^For

to betray him apart from the multitudes.

on Peter. And Peter remembered the word
of our Lord, as he had said, That before the
cock crow, thou shalt thrice deny me. ^Aud
Peter going forth a doors, wept bitterly.

63 And the men that held him, mocked
him, beating him. H And they did blindfold
him, and smote his face. And they asked
him, saving, Prophesy, who is it that 9mote
thee ? J55 And blaspheming many other things
they said against him.

66 And when it was day, there assembled
the ancients of the people and chief Priests
and Scribes, and they brought him into
their council, saying, 6'If thou be Christ,
tell us. And he said to them. If I tell you,
you will not believe me: 6^if also I ask, you
will not answer me, nor dismiss me. BJ But
from henceforth the Son of man shall be
sitting on the right hand of the power of
God. 7° And they all said, Art thou then
the son_of God ? "Who said, You say that
I am. ''But they said, What need we tes-
timony any further? For ourselves have
heard of his own mouth.

And all the multitude of them rising up,
led him to Pilate. 2 And they began to accuse
him, saying, We have found this man sub-
verting our nation, and prohibiting to give
tributes to Caesar, and saying that he is
Christ the king. 3And Pilate asked him,
saying, Art thou the king of the Jews ?
But he answering, said, Thou sayest. 4 And
Pilate said to the chief Priests and multi-
tudes, I find no cause in this man. *But
they were more earnest, saying. He stimth
the people teaching throughout all Jewry,
beginning from Galilee even hither. 6But
Pilate hearing Galilee, asked if the man
were of Galilee. "And when he understood
that lie was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent
him back to Herod, who was also himself
at Jerusalem in those days.

8 And Herod seeing Jesus, was very glad,
for he was desirous of a long time to IM
him, for because lie heard many things of
him j and he hoped to sec gome sign wrought
by him. ,J And he naked him in many words.
But he answered him nothing. I0 And there
stood the eh id' Priests and the Scribes con-
stantly accusing him. ".And Herod with

his army set him at naught i and lie mocked
him, putting on him a white garment
sent him hack to Pilate. '-And Herod and
Pilate were made friends that day 1 for before

16 1 will chasten him therefore, and dismiss
him.

l' And he of necessity had to release unto
them upon the feast day, one. l8But the
whole multitude together cried out, saying,
Dispatch him, and release us Barabbas ;
19 who was for a certain sedition made in
the city, and murder, cast into prison. ^And
Pilate again spake to them, desirous to re-
lease Jesus. '-'But they cried again, saying.
Crucify, crucify him. 2-And he the third
time said to them, Why, what evil hath this
man done? I find no cause of death in him.
I will correct him therefore, and let him go.
23 But they were instant with loud voices
requiring that he might be crucified. And
their voices prevailed. 2,And Pilate ad-
judged their petition to be done. -'And he
released unto them him that for murder and
sedition had been cast into prison, whom
they demanded: but Jesus ho delivered to
their pleasure.

26 And when they led him, they took one
Simon of Cyrene coming from the country ;
and they laid the cross upon him to carry
after Jesus. '-7 And there followed him a
great multitude of people, and of women
which bewailed and lamented him. ^But
Jesus turning to them, said. Daughters of
Jerusalem, weep not upon me, but weep upon
yourselves, and upon your children. ^For
behold the days shall come, wherein they
will say, Blessed are the barren, and the
wombs that have not borne, and the paps
that have not given suck. 3° Then shall they
begin to say to the mountains. Fall upon us:
and to the hills, Cover us. 31 For if in the
green wood they do these things, in the dry
what shall be done?

32 And there were led also other two male-
factors with him, to be executed. ^And
after they came to the place which is called
Calvary, there they crucified him : and the
thieves, one on the right hand, and the
other on the left. 3I And Jesus said, Father,
forgive them, for they know not what they
do. But they dividing his garments, did
cast lots.

35 And the people stood expecting, and
the princes with them derided him. Baying,
Others he hath saved, let him save himself,
if this be Christ, the elect of God. 3r' And
the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him,
and offering him vinegar, V saying, If thou
be the king of the Jews, save thyself. 'And
there was also a superscription written over
him in Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew let-
ters : This is the kino of the jews.
31 And one of those thieves that were hanged,
blasphemed him, saying. If thou bo Chriit,
suve thyself, and us. ^But the other an-
swering, rebuked him, saying, Neither dost
thou fear God, whereus thou art in the lame
damnation? '"And we indeed justly, for
we receive worthy of our doings: but this

Tollehunc, et dimitte nobis Barabbam. Qui erat propter
scditionem quandam factam in civitatc et bomicidium,
missus in carcerem. Itcrum autem Pilatus locutus est
ad eos, volens dimittere Jesum. At illi succlamabant,
dicentes: Crucifige, crucifige cum. Ilk autem tertio
dixit ad lllos: Quid enim mali fecit istc? nullam
causam mortis invenio in eo: corripiam ergo ilium, et
dimittam. At illi instabant vocibus magnis postulantcs
ut crucifigeretur: et invalcscebant voces eoruni. Et
Pilatus adjudicavit fieri petitionem corum. Dimisit
autem illis cum, qui propter bomicidium et scditionem
missus fuerat in carcerem, quern petebant, Jesum vero
tradidit voluntati eorum.

Et cum ducerent eum, apprehenderunt Simonem
quendam Cyrenensem venientem de villa: et impo-
suerunt illi crucem portare post Jesum. Sequebatur
autem ilium multa turba populi, et mulicrum, qua1
plangebant, et lamentabantur eum. Conversus autem
adillas Jesus, dixit: Filirc Jerusalem, nolite ilere super
me, sed super vos ipsas flete, et super filios vestros.
Quoniam ecce venient dies, in quibus dicent: Beatae
steriles, et ventres, qui non genuerunt, et ubera, qua1

vocatur Calvariaj, ibi crucifixerunt eum, et latrones,
unum a dextris, et alteram a sinistris. Jesus autem
dicebat: Pater, dimitte illis: non enim sciunt quid

Jesum : Domine, memento mei, cum veneris in regnum

45 universam terram usque in horam nonam. Et obscu-

man hath done no evil. a And he said to
Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou shalt
come into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said
him, Amen I say to thee : this day thou shalt
be with me in paradise.

44 And it was almost the sixth hour : and
there was made darkness upon the whole
earth until the ninth hour. 45And the sun
was darkened ; and the veil of the temple
was rent in the midst. 46 And Jesus crying
■with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands
I commend my spirit. And saying this, he
gave up the ghost.

4rAnd the Centurion seeing that which
was done, glorified God, saying, Indeed this
man was just. ^And all the multitude of
them that were present together at that
sight, and saw the things that were done,
returned knocking their breasts. 4'J And all
his acquaintance stood afar off; and the
wonien that had followed him from Galilee,
seeing these things.

:0 And behold a man named Joseph, which
was a senator, a good man and a just, 51 he
had not consented to their counsel and
doings, of Arimathaea a city of Jewry, who
also himself expected the kingdom of God.
s- This man came to Pilate, and asked the
body of Jesus. 53 And taking it down, wrap-

Eed it in sindon,and laid him in a monument,
ewed of stone, wherein never yet any man
had been laid. S4 And it was the day of
Parasceve, and the Sabbath drew near.
5' And the wonien that were come with him
from Galilee, following after, saw the monu-
ment, and how his body was laid. i6And
returning they prepared spices and oint-
ments: and on the Sabbath they rested
according to the commandment.

.And in the first of the Sabbath very early
they came to the monument, currying the
spices which they had prepared. -And they
found the stone rolled back from the monu-
ment. 'And going in, they found not the
body of our Lord Jesus. 4 And it. came to
pass, as they were astonied in their mind at
this, behold two men stood beside them in

elolhes lying alone, and went uway marvel-
ling with himself at that whieh was done.

u And behold, two of them went the same
day into a town which was the space of sixty
furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.
11 And they talked betwixt themselves of all
those things that had chanced. 15And it
came to pass, while they talked and reasoned
with themselves, Jesus also himself approach-
ing went with them ; 1G but their eyes were
held that they might not know him. '"And
he said to them. What are these communi-
cations that you confer one with another
walking, and are sad? 18 And one whose
name was Cleoplias, answerine, said to him,
Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and
hast not known the things that have been
done in it these days? ,,J To whom he said,
"What things? And they said, concerning Jesus
of Nazareth, who was aman a Prophet,migbty
in work and word before God and all the
people, so And how our chief Priests and
Princes delivered him into condemnation
of death, and crucified him : 2I but we hoped
that it was he that should redeem Israel:
and now besides all this, to-day is the third
day since these things were done. — Put
certain women also of our' s, made us afraid :
who before it was light, were at the monu-
ment; '-^and not finding his body, came, say-
ing that they saw a vision also of Angels,
who say that he is alive. 24 And certain men
of our's went to the monument : and they
found it so as the women said, hut him they
found not. -'And he said to them, O foolish,
and slow of heart to believe, in all things
which the Prophets have spoken. •Ought
not Christ to have suffered these things,
and so to enter into his glory? "7 And be-
ginning from Moyses and all the Prophets,
be did interpret to them in all the scriptures
the things that were concerning him. •And
they drew nigh to the town whither they
went ; and he made semblance to go further.
89 And they for ced him, saving, Tarry with
us, because it is toward night, and the day is
now far spent. And he went in with them.
•And it came to pass, whilst he sat at the
table with them, be took bread, and blessed
and brake, and did reach to them; 31 and
their eyes were opened, and they knew him :
and lie vanished out of their sight. 3-And
they said one to the other, Was not our
heart burning in us, whilst he spake in the
wax, and opened unto us the scriptures?
83 And rising up the same hour, they went
back into Jerusalem: and they found the
eleven gathered together, and those that were
with them, •" saying, That our Lord is risen
indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. s'And
they told the things that were done in the
way -. and how they knew him iu the break-
ing of bread.

36 And whilst they speak these things, Jesus
Stood in the midst of them, and he saith to
tlicm, Peace be to you: it is I, fear not.

Et ecce duo ex illis ibant ipsa die in castcllum, quod 13
erat in spatio stadiorum sexaginta ab Jerusalem, nomine
Emmaus. Et ipsi loquebantur ad invicem de his 14
omnibus, quae acciderant. Et factum est, dum fabu- 15
larentur, et secum quaererent: et ipse Jesus appro-
pinquans ibat cum illis: oculi autem illorum teneban- 16
tur ne eum agnoscerent. Et ait ad illos: Qui sunt hi 17
sermones, quos confertis ad invicem ambulantes, et estis
tristes? Et respondens unus, cui noraen Cleophas, 18
dixit ei : Tu solus peregrinus es in Jerusalem, et non
cognovisti qua; facta sunt in ilia his diebus? Quibus 19
ille dixit: Quae? Et dixerunt: De Jesu Nazareno,
qui fait vir propheta, potens in opere, et sermone
coram Deo et omni populo: et quomodo eum tradi- 20
derunt summi sacerdotes et principes nostri in damna-

super haec omnia, tertia dies est hodie quod htec facta

visioncm angelorum vidisse, qui dicunt eum vivcre. Et 24
abierunt quidam ex nostris ad monumentum: et ita
invenerunt sicut mulieres dixerunt, ipsum vero non
invencrunt. Et ipse dixit ad eos: 0 stulti, et tardi 25

phetae ! Nonnc haec oportuit pati Christum, ct ita 26
intrare in gloriam suam? Et incipiens a Moysc et 27

37 Conturbati vero, et conterriti, existimabant se spiritum
2,8 videre. Et dixit eis: Quid turbati estis, et cogitationes

39 ascend unt in corda vestra? Videte manus meas, et
pedes, quia ego ipse sum : palpate, et videte : quia
spiritus carnem et ossa non habet, sicut me videtis

40 habere. Et cum hoc dixissit, ostendit eis manus et

41 pedes. Adhuc autem illis non credentibus, et miranti-
bus prse guadio, dixit : Habetis hie aliquid, quod man-

42 ducetur? At illi obtulerunt ei partem piscis assi, et

43 favum mellis. Et cum manducasset coram eis, sumens
reliquias dedit eis.

44 Et dixit ad eos : Haec sunt verba, quae locutus sum
ad vos, cum adhuc essem vobiscum, quoniam necesse
est impleri omnia, quae scripta sunt in lege Moysi, et

45 Prophetis, et Psalmis de me. Tunc aperuit illis sen-

46 sum ut intelligerent Scripturas. Et dixit eis : Quoniam
sic scriptum est, et sic oportebat Christum pati, et

47 resurgere a mortuis tertia die : et praedicari in nomine
ejus poenitentiam, et remissionem peccatorum in omnes

48 gentes, incipientibus ab Ierosolyma. Vos autem testes

49 estis horum. Et ego mitto promissum Patris mei in
vos: vos autem sedete in civitate, quoadusque indua-
mini virtute ex alto.

50 Eduxit autem eos foras in Bethaniam: et elevatis
5 I manibus suis benedixit eis. Et factum est, dum bene-
52 diceret illis, recessit ab eis, et ferebatur in coelum. Et

ipsi adorantes regressi sunt in Jerusalem cum gaudio
5 3 magno : et erant semper in templo, laudantes et bene-
dicentes Deum. Amen.

37 But they, being troubled and frighted,
imagined that they saw a spirit. ^And he said
to them, "Why are you troubled, and cogita-
tions arise into your hearts ? 39 See my hands
and feet, that it is I myself; handle, and see :
for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you
see me to have. *> And when he had said
this, he shewed them his hands and feet.
41 But they yet not believing and marvelling
for joy, he said, Have you here anything to
be eaten ? *2But they offered him a piece
of fish broiled, and a honeycomb. 43And
when he had eaten before them, taking the
remains he gave to them.

44 And he said to them, These are the words
which I spake to you, when I was yet with
you, that all things must needs be fulfilled,
which are written in the law of Moyses,
and the Prophets, and the Psalms, of me.
45 Then he opened their understanding, that
they might understand the Scriptures; 46and
he said to them, That so it is written, and
so it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise
again from the dead the third day: 47and
penance to be preached in his name, and
remission of sins unto all nations, begin-
ning from Jerusalem. 4SAnd you are wit-
nesses of these things. 49And I send the
promise of my father upon you ; but you,
tarry in the city till you be endued with
power from high.

50 And he brought them forth abroad into
Bethania: and lifting up his hands, he blessed
them. 51And it came to pass, whilst he
blessed them, he departed from them, and
was carried into heaven. 52 And they adorint;
went back into Jerusalem with great joy :
and they were always in the temple praising
and blessing God.

JESU CHKISTI
EVANGELIUM SECUNDUM JOANNEM.

IN the beginning was the "Word, and the
WoitD was with God, and God was the
Woed. *Thia was in the beginning with
God. 3 All things were made by him: and
without him was made nothing. That
which was made, *in him was life, and the
life was the litdit of men : s and the light
shineth in darkness, and the darkness did
not comprehend it. ° There was a man sent
from God, whose name was John. 7This
man came for testimony; to give testimony
of the liiiht, that all might believe through
him. 8JIe was not the light, but to give
testimony of the light. 9It was the true
light, which lighteneth every man that
cometh into this world. " He was in the
world, and the world was made by him, and
the world knew him not. u lie enme into
his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, he cave
them power to be made the sons of God,
to those that believe in his name. 13Wlio,
not of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of
the will of man, but of God are born.
11 And the WOED was made flesh, and
dwelt in us (and we saw the glory of him,
glory as it were of the only-begotten of the
Father) full of grace and verity. I5John
giveth testimony of him, and crieth, saying,
This was he of whom 1 spake, lie that shall
come after me, is made before me ; because
he was before me. "And of his fulness all
we have received, and grace for grace. 17 For
the law was given by Moyses, grace and
verity was made by Jesus Christ. ls God no
man hath seen at any time: the only-begotten
Son which is in the bosom of the father, he
hath declared.

"And this is John's testimony, when the
Jews sent from Jerusalem l'riests and I.e-
vitea to him, that they should ask him, Who
art thou? :0And he confessed, and did not
deny: and he confessed, That 1 am not
CHRIST. nAnd they asked him, What
then P Art thou Elias? And he said, I am
not. Art thou (ho Prophet? And he an-
swered. No. a They said therefore unto him,

In principio crat verbum, ct verbum erat apud Deum, 1
et Deus erat verbum. Hoc erat in principio apud 2
Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt : et sine ipso 3
factum est nihil, quod factum est. In ipso vita erat, 4
et vita erat lux hominum: ct lux in tenebris lucet, et 5
tenebnc cam non comprehenderunt. Fuit homo missus 6
a Deo, cui nomen crat Joannes. Hie venit in testi- 7
monium, ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine, ut
omnes crederunt per ilium. Non erat ille lux, sed ut 8
testimonium perhiberet de lumine. Erat lux vera, 9
quae illuminat omnem honimen venientem in hunc
mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factua 10
est, et mundus cum non cognovit. In propria venit, 1 1
et sui eum non receperunt. Quotquot autein reeeperunt 1 2
cum, dedit eis potcstatcm filios Dei fieri, his, qui cre-
dunt in nomine ejus : qui non ex sanguinibus, neque 13
ex voluntate carnis, neque ex voluntate viri, sed ex Deo
nati sunt. Et verbum caro factum est, et habitavit in 14
nobis : et vidimus gloriam ejus, gloriam quasi unigeniti
a patre, plenum gratis ct vcritatis. Joannes testi- 15
monium perhibct de ipso, ct clamat dicans: Hie erat,
quern dixi: Qui post me ventures est, ante me factua
est: quia prior me erat. Et de plcnitudinc ejus nos 16
omnes accepimus, et gratiam pro gratia. Quia lex per 17
Moysen data est, gratia et Veritas per Jesum Christum
facta est. Deum nemo viditunquam: unigenitus filius, 18
qui est in sinu patris, ipse enarravit.

Et hoc est testimonium Joannis, quando miserunt 19
Judrci ab Icrosolymis saccrdotcs ct Levitas ad cum ut
interrogarent eum: Tu quis cs? Et confessus est, et 20
non negavit: et confessus est: Quia non sum ego
Christus. Et interrogaverunt eum : Quid ergo? Elias 21
es tu? Et dixit: Non sum. Propheta es tu? Et
respondit: Non. Dixcrunt ergo ei : Quis cs. ut re- 22
sponsum demus his, qui miserunt nos? quid dicis de
teipso? Ait: Ego vox clamantis in deserto: Dirigite 23
viam Domini, sicut dixit Isaias propheta. Et qui missi 24

123

25 fuerant, erant ex Pharisseia. Et interrogaverunt cum,
et dixerunt ei : Quid ergo baptizas, si tu non es

26 Cliristus, neque Elias, neque Propheta? Respondit
eis Joannes, dicens : Ego baptizo in aqua : medius

27 autem vestrum stetit, quem vos nescitis. Ipse est, qui
post me venturus est, qui ante me factus est: cujus ego
non sum dignus ut solvam ejus corrigiam calceamenti.

28 Haec in Bethania facta sunt trans Jordanem, ubi erat
Joannes baptizans.

29 Altera die vidit Joannes Jesum venientem ad se, et ait :

30 Ecce agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccatum mundi. Hie
est, de quo dixi : Post me venit vir, qui ante me factus est :

3 1 quia prior me erat. Et ego nesciebam eum, sed ut mani-
festetur in Israel, propterea veni ego in aqua baptizans.

32 Et testimonium perliibuit Joannes, dicens: Quia vidi
Spiritum descendentem quasi columbamde coclo, et man-

33 sit super eum. Et ego nesciebam eum : sed qui misit me
baptizare in aqua, ille mini dixit: Super quem videris
Spiritum descendentem, et manentem super eum, hie

34 est, qui baptizat in Spiritu sancto. Et ego vidi : et
testimonium perhibui quia hie est Filius Dei.

35 Altera die iterum stabat Joannes, et ex discipulis ejus

36 duo. Et respiciens Jesum ambulantem, dicit : Ecce

37 agnus Dei. Et audierunt eum duo discipuli loquentcm,

38 et secuti sunt Jesum. Conversus autem Jesus, et videns
eos sequentes se, dicit eis: Quid quajritis? Qui dixerunt
ei : Kabbi, (quod dicitur interpretatum Magister) ubi

39habitas? Dicit eis: Venite, et videtc. Venerunt,
et viderunt ubi maneret, et apud eum manserunt die

40 illo : hora autem erat quasi decima. Erat autem
Andreas frater Simonis Petri unus ex duobus, qui

41 audierant a Joanne, et secuti fuerant eum. Invcnit
hie prirnum fratrem suum Simonem, et dicit ei: In-

!' asiam (quod est interpretatum Christus).

Pharisees. "And they asked him, and said to
him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be
not Christ, nor Elias, nor the Prophet?
16 John answered them, saying, I baptize in
water: but there hath stood in the midst of
you whom you know not. "-'" The same is lie
that shall come after me, that is made before
me; whose latchet of his shoe I am not
•worthy to unloose. 3S These things were
done in Bethania beyond Jordan, where John
was baptizing.

25 The next day John saw Jesus coming to

world. 3j This is he of whom I said, After
me there comet h a man, which is made
before me : because he was before me. slAnd
I knew him not, but that he may be mani-
fested in Israel, "therefore came I baptizing

him. ^Andlknew him not: but he that

And the third day there was a marriage
made in Cana of Galilee : and the mother of
Jesus was there. 2And Jesus also was called,
and his Disciples to the marriage. 3 And the
wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to
him, They have no wine. 4 And Jesus Bail li
to her, "What is to me and thee, woman ? my
hour cometh not yet. 5His mother saith to
the ministers, Whatsoever he shall say to
you. do ye. c And there were set there six
water-pots of stone, according to the puri-
fication of the Jews, holding every one two or
three measures. 7 Jesus saith to them. Fill
the water-pots with water. And they filled
them up to the top. 8And Jesus saith to
them, Draw now, and carry to the chief
steward. And they carried it. 9And after
the chief steward tasted the water made
wine, and knew not whence it was, but the
ministers knew that had drawn the water,
the chief steward calleth the bridegroom,
10 and saith to him, Every man first setteth
the good wine: and when they have well
drunk, then that which is worse. But thou
hast kept the good wine until now. "This
beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of
Galilee: and he manifested his glory, and
his Disciples believed in him.

12 After this he went down to Caphar-
naum himself, and his mother, and his bre-
thren, and his disciples: and there they
remained not many days. uAnd the Pasche
of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up
to Jerusalem : ''and he found in the temple
them that sold oxen and sheep and doves,
and the bankers sitting. J* And when he
had made as it were a whip of little cords,
lie cast them all out of the temple, the
sheep also and the oxen: and the money
of the bankers he poured out, and the tables
he overthrew. 16And to them that sold
doves, he said, Take away these things hence,
and make not the house of my father, a
house of merchandise. "And his Disciples
remembered that it is written, The zeal of
Ihij house hath eaten me. 1M The Jews there-
fore answered and said to him, \\ hat sign
dost thon shew us, that thou doest these
things ? 19 Jesus answered and said to them,
Dissolve this temple, and in three days I
will raise it. 3lThe Jews therefore said, Tn
forty and six years was this temple built,
and wilt thou raise it in three days?^ ■ But
he spake of the temple of his body. - There-
fore when he was risen again from the dead,
his Disciples remembered that he paid this,
and they believed the scrinture and the
word t lint Jesus did say. 3And when he
was at Jerusalem in the Pasche, upon the
festival day, many believed in his name,
seeing his signs which he did. :<But Jesus

Et die tertia nuptiac factae sunt in Cana Galilaeae: et 2
erat mater Jesu ibi. Yocatus est autem et Jesus et 2
discipuli ejus ad nuptias. Et deficiente vino, dicit 3
mater Jesu ad eum: Vinum non habent. Et dicit ei 4
Jesus: Quid mihi et tibi est, mulier? nondum venit
hora mea. Dicit mater ejus ministris: Quodcumque 5
dixerit vobis, facite. Erant autem ibi lapidcas hydriaa 6
sex positae secundum purificationem Judaeorum, ca-
pientes singula? metretas binas vel ternas. Dicit eis 7
Jesus: Implcte hydrias aqua. Et impleverunt cas
usque ad summum. Et dicit eis Jesus : Haurite nunc, 8
et ferte architriclino. Et tulerunt. Ut autem gustavit 9
architrielinus aquam vinum factam, et non sciebat unde
esset, ministri autem scicbant, qui hauserant aquam :
vocat sponsum architriclinus, et dicit ei: Omnis IO
homo primum bonum vinum ponit: et cum incbriati
f'uerint, tunc id, quod detenus est : Tu autem servasti
bonum vinum usque adhuc. Hoc fecit initium sig- 1 1
norum Jesus in Cana Galilaae: et manifestavit gloriam
suam, et crediderunt in eum discipuli ejus.

Post hoc descendit Capliarnautn ipse, et mater ejus, 12
ct fratres ejus, et discipuli ejus: et ibi manserunt non
multis dicbus. Et prope erat Pascha Judacsorum. et 13
ascendit Jesus Ierosolymam: ct invenit in templo 14
vendentes boves, et oves, et columbas, et numularios
sedentes. Et cum fecisset quasi nagellum dc funiculi?, 15
omnes ejecit de templo, oves quoque, et boves, et nu-
mulariorum effudit aes, et mensas subvertit. Et his, 16
qui columbas vendebant, dixit: Auferte ista hinc, et
nolite facere domum patris mei domum negotiationis.
Recordati sunt vero discipuli ejus quia scriptum est: 17
Zelus domus tuae comedit me. Responderunt ergo 18
Judrei, et dixerunt ei: Quod signum ostendis nobis
quia hsec facis? Respondit Jesus, ct dixit eis: Solvite 19

2 princeps Judaeorum. Hie venit ad Jesum nocte, et
dixit ei: Rabbi, scimus quia a Deo venisti magister,
nemo enim potest haec signo facere, qua3 tu facis, nisi

3 fuerit Deus cum eo. Kespondit Jesus, et dixit ei :
Amen, amen, dico tibi, nisi quis renatus fuerit denuo,

4 non potest videre regnum Dei. Dicit ad eum Xico-
demus: Quomodo potest homo nasei, cum sit senex?
numquid potest in ventrem matris suae iterato introire, et

5 renasci? Respondit Jesus : Amen, amen, dico tibi, nisi
quis renatus fuerit ex aqua et Spiritu sancto, non potest

6 introire in regnum Dei. Quod natum est ex carne caro

7 est: et quod natum est ex spiritu, spiritusest. Non mi-

14 Et sicut Moyses exaltavit serpentem in deserto; ita

he knew all, B and because it was not need-
ful for him that any should give testimony
of man : for he knew what was in man.

And there was a man of the Pharisees,
named Nicodemus, a prince of the Jews.
: This man came to Jesus by night, and said
tc him, Rabbi, we know that thou art come
from God a master, for no man can do these
signs which thou doest, unless God be with
him. 3 Jesus answered, and said to him,
Amen, Amen I say to thee, Unless a man
be born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of God. 4 Xicodemus said to him, How can
a man be born when lie is old ? can he enter
into his mother's womb again and be born?
5 Jesus answered. Amen, Amen I say to thee,
Unless a man be bom again of water and
the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of
God. "That which is born of the flesh, is
flesh; and that which is born of the spirit,
is spirit. 'Marvel not, that I said to thee,
You must be born again. h The spirit breath-
eth where lie will; and thou hearest his
voice, but thou knowest not whence he Com-
eth and whither he goeth : so is every one
that is born of the Spirit. a Nicodemus an-
swered and said to him. How can these things
be done? 10 Jesus answered and said to him,
Thou art a master in Israel, aud art thou
ignorant of these things ? u Amen, Amen I
say to thee, that we speak that which we
know, and that which we have seen we tes-
tify, and our testimony you receive not. '-If
I have spoken to you earthly things, and you
believe not: how if I shall speak to you hea-
venly things, will you believe? 13And no
man hath ascended into heaven, but lie that
descended from heaven, the Son of man
which is in heaven. "And as Moyses ex-
alted the serpent in the desert, so mnst the
Son of man be exalted: 15that every one
which beheveth in him, perish not, but may
have life everlasting. ™ For so God loved
the world, that lie gave his only-begotten
son: that every one that believeth in him,
perish not, but may have life everlasting.
17 For God sent not his son into the world to
judge the world, but that the world may bo
saved by him. u He that believeth in him,
is not judged ; but he that doth not, believe
is already judged ; because he hath not be-*
liered in the name of the only-begotten ton
of God. "And this is the judgment: be-
cause the light is eome into I he world, ami

ciples with the Jews concerning purification.

to whom thou didst give testimony, heboid,

answered and said, A man cannot receive
anything, unless it be given him from hea-
ven. s Yourselves do bear me witness that
I said, I am not Christ ; but that I am sent
before him. -Jlle that hath the bride, is the
bridegroom ; but the friend of the bridegroom
that standeth and lieareth him, rejoiceth
with joy for the voice of the bridegroom.
This my joy therefore is filled. 3JHe must
increase, and 1 diminish. 31 He that comet h
from above, is above all. He that is of the
earth, of the earth he is, and of the earth he
speaketh. lie that cometh from heaven, is
above all. 3'-And what he hath seen and
heard, that he testifieth ; and his testimony
no man reeeiveth. ;3He that hath received
his testimony, hath signed that God is true.
34 For he whom God hath sent, speaketh the
words of God; for God doth not give the
spirit by measure. 3> The Father loveth the
Son, and he hath given all things in his hand.

everlasting ; but he that is incredulous to
the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of
God remaineth upon him.

"When Jesus therefore understood that the
Pharisees heard that Jesus maketh more
Disciples, and baptizeth, than John, - (how-
beit. Jesus did not baptize, but his Disciples)
3 he left Jewry, anil went again into Galilee.
'And he had of necessity to pass through
Samaria. 5 He cometh therefore into a city
of Samaria which is called Sichar; beside
the manor that Jacob gave to Joseph his
son. "And there was there the fountain of
Jacob. Jesus therefore, wearied of his jour-
ney, sat so upon the fountain. It was about
the sixth hour.

"There cometh a woman of Samaria to
draw water ; Jesus saith to her, Give me to
drink. 8For his Disciples were gone into
tin' city, to buy meats. 9 Therefore that Sa-
maritan woman saith to him, How dost thou,
being a Jew, ask of me to drink, which am a
Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not
communicate with the Samaritans. lu.Jesus
answered and said to her, If thou didst
know the gift of God, and who lie is that

fierhnps wouldest have asked of him, and
ie would have given thee living water.
11 The woman saith to him, Sir, neither
hast thou wherein to draw, and the well
is deep : whence hast thou the living
water? 1: Art thou greater than our father
Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself
drank of it, and his children, and his cattle ?
13 Jesus answered, and said to her, Every one
that drinketh of this water shall thirst again :
but lie that shall drink of the water that 1
will give him, shall not thirst for ever : "but
the water that I will give him, shall become

testimonium perhibetis, quod dixcrim: Non sum ego
Christus: sed quia missus sum ante ilium. Qui habet 29
sponsam, sponsus est: amicus autem sponsi, qui stat,

16 Jesus saith to her, Go, call thy husband,
and come hither. ''The woman answered
and said, I have no husband. Jesus saith to
her, Thou hast said well, that I have no
husband. ls For thou hast had five husbands;
and he whom thou now hast, is not tiiy hus-
band: this thou hast said truly.

)9The woman saith to him, Lord, I per-
ceive that thou art a Prophet. M Our fathers
adored in this mountain, and you say, that
at Jerusalem is the place where men must
adore. 21 Jesus saith to her, "Woman, believe
me, that the hour shall come, when you shall
neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem,
adore the Father. "You adore that you
know not ; we adore that we know, for sal-
vation is of the Jews. a But the hour cometh,
and now it is, when the true adorers shall
adore the Father in spirit and verity: for
the Father also seeketh such, to adore him.
-' God is a spirit: and they that adore him,
must adore in spirit and verity. 2l The
woman saitli to him, I know that Messias
cometh, (which is called Christ) : therefore
when he cometh, he will shew us all things.
-G Jesus saith to her, I am he, that speak with
thee.

2? And incontinent his Disciples came: and
they marvelled that he talked with a woman.
No man for all that said, What seekest thou,
or why talkest thou witli her?

23 The woman therefore left her water-pot:
and she went into the city, and saitli to thoso
men, aCome, and see a man that hath told
me all things whatsoever 1 have done. Is
not he Christ? ^They went forth there-
fore out of the city, and came to him.

31 In the meantime the Disciples desired
him, saying, ltabbi, eat. MBut he said to
them, I have meat to eat which you know
not. ^Tlie Disciples therefore said one to
another, Hath any man brought him for to
eat? 3I Jesus saith to them, My meal ii to
flo the will of him that sent me, to perfect his
work. ■ Do not you say that yet there are

he tarried there two days. 41And many
more believed for li is own word. 42And
they said to the woman, That now not for
thy saying do we believe; for ourselves have
heard, and do know that this is the Saviour
of the world indeed.

43 And after the two days he departed
thence ; and went into Galilee. ** For Jesus
himself gave testimony that a Prophet hath
notf honour in his own country. 45 Therefore
when he was come into Galilee, the Gali-
loeans received him, whereas they had seen
all things that he had done at Jerusalem in
the festival day : for themselves also came to
the festival day.

v,Tle came again therefore into Cana of
Galilee, Where he made water wine. And
there was a certain lord whose son was sick
at Capharnaum. 47IIe having heard that
Jesus came from Jewry into Galilee, went to
him, and desired him that he would come down
and heal his son ; for he began to die. 4S Jesus
therefore said to him. Unless you see signs
and wonders, you believe not. 49The lord
saith to him, Lord, come down before that
my son die. 5' Jesus saith to him, Go, thy
son live tli. The man believed the word that
Jesus snid to him, and went. 51Andashe
was now going down, his servants met him ;
and thev brought word saying, That his son
lived. 5-lle asked therefore of them the
hour wherein he was amended. And they
said to him, That yesterday at the seventh
hour the fever left him. M The father there-
fore knew that it was in the same hour
wherein Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth :
and himself believed, and his whole house.
51 This again the second sign did Jesus,
when he was come from Jewry into Galilee.

After these things there was a festival day
of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 And there is at Jerusalem upon Probatica
a pond which in hebrew is surnamed Beth-
saida, having five porches. -'In these lay a
great multitude of sick persons, of blind,
lame, withered, expecting the stirring of the
water. 4 And an Angel of our Lord descended
at a certain time into the pond; and the
water was stirred. And he that had gone
down first into the pond, after the stirring of
the water, was made whole of whatsoever
infirmity he was holden. b And there was a
certain man there that had been eight and
thirty \ears in his infirmity. 6 II im when
Jesus had seen lying, and knew that he had
now a long time, he saith to him, "Wilt thou
be made whole? 'The sick man answered
him, Lord, I have no man, when the water
is troubled, to put me into the pond. For
whiles I come, another goeth down before
me. s.Iesus saith to him, Arise, take tip thy
bed, and walk. '■> And forthwith he was made
whole : and he took up his bed, and walked.

eum ut ibi maneret. Et mansit ibi duos dies. Et4i
multo plures crediderunt in eum propter sermonem
ejus. Et mulieri dicebant: Quia jam non propter 42
tuam loquelam credimus: ipsi enim audivimus, et
scimus, quia hie est vere Sal va tor mundi.

Post duos autem dies exiit inde : et abiit in Galilaeam. 43
Ipse enim Jesus testimonium perhibuit quia Propheta 44
in sua patria honorem non habet. Cum ergo venisset 45
in Galilaeam, exceperunt cum Galilaei, cum omnia
vidissent quae fecerat Ierosolymis in die festo : et ipsi
enim vencrant ad diem festum.

Venit ergo iterum in Cana Galilaeam, ubi fecit aquam 46
vinum. Et erat quidam regulus, cujus filius infirma-
batur Capharnaum. Hie cum audissct quia Jesus 47
advenirct a Judaea in Galilaeam, abiit ad eum, et roga-
bat eum ut descendcret, et sanaret filium ejus: incipie-
bat enim mori. Dixit ergo Jesus ad eum: Nisi signa 4S
et prodigia videritis, non crcdetis. Dicit ad eum 49
regulus: Domine, descende prius quam moriatur filius
mcus. Dicit ei Jesus: Vadc, filius tuus vivit. Credidit 50
homo sermoni, quem dixit ei Jesus, et ibat. Jam 5 1
autem eo descendente, servi occurrerunt ei, et nuncia-
verunt dicentes^ quia filius ejus vivcret. Interrogabat 52
ergo horam ab eis, in qua melius habucrit. Et dix-
erunt ei : Quia heri hora septima reliquit cum febris.
Cognovit ergo pater, quia ilia hora erat, in qua dixit 53
ei Jesus: Filius tuus vivit: et credidit ipse, et domus
ejus tota. Hoc iterum secundum signum fecit Jesus,
cum venisset a Judiea in Galiheam.

Post hoec erat dies festus Judaeorum, ct ascendit 5
Jesus Icrosolymam. Est autem Ierosolymis Probatica 2
piscina, qua? cognominatur Hcbraicc Bcthsaida, quinque
porticus habena. In his jacebat multitudo magna 3
langucntium, caccorum, elaudorum, aridorum, exi
tantium aqua? motum. Angelus autem Domini de- 4
scendebat secundum tempus in piscinam: et movebatur
aqua. Et qui prior acscendisset in piscinam post
motionem aqua?, sanus ficbat a quacumque detinebatur
infirmitate. Erat autem quidam homo ibi triginta ct 5
octo annos habens in infirmitate sua. Ilunc cum 6
vidissct Jesus jacentcm, et eognovisset quia jam mul-
tum tempus haberet, dicit ei: Vis sanus fieri? Ke- 7
spondit ei lamniidus: Domine, hominem non habeo,
ut, cum turbata lucrit aqua, mittat mc in piscinam:
(lum venio enim c<ro, alius ante mc descendit. Dicit 8
ci Jesus: Surge, tollc grabatum tuum, ct ambula.
Et statim sanus factus est homo ille: et sustulit graba- 9
turn suam, ct ambulabat. Erat autem sabbatum in

129

10 die illo. Dicebant ergo Judaei illi, qui sanatus fuerat:
Sabbatum est, non licet tibi tollere grabatum tuum.

1 1 Respondit eis : Qui me sanum fecit, ille mihi dixit :

12 Tolle grabatum tuum, et ambula. Interrogaverunt
ero-o eum: Quis est ille homo, qui dixit tibi, Tolle

13 grabatum tuum, et ambula? Is autem, qui sanus
fuerat effectus, nesciebat quis esset. Jesus enim decli-

14 navit a turba coustituta in loco. Postea invenit eum
Jesus in templo, et dixit illi: Ecce sanus factus es:
jam noli peccare, ne detenus tibi aliquid contingat.

1 5 Abiit ille homo, et nunciavit Judseis quia Jesus esset,

16 qui fecit eum sanum. Propterea persequebantur
Judaei Jesum, quia haec faciebat in sabbato.

17 Jesus autem respondit eis: Pater meus usque modo

1 8 operatur, et ego operor. Propterea ergo magis quserebant
eum Judaei interficere : quia non solum soivebat sabba-
tum , sed et patrem suum dicebat Deum , aaqualem se faciens

19 Deo. Respondit itaque Jesus, et dixit eis : Amen, amen,
dicovobis: non potest Filius a se facere quidquam,
nisi quod viderit Patrem facientem: quaecumque enim

20 ille fecerit, haec et Filius similiter facit. Pater enim
diligit Filium, et omnia demonstrat ei, quae ipse
facit: et majora his demonstrabit ei opera, ut vos

21 miremini. Sicut enim Pater suscitat mortuos, et

22 vivi6cat : sic et Filius, quos vult, vivificat. Xeque

23 enim Pater judicat quemquam : sed omne judicium
dedit Filio, ut omnes honorificent Filium, sicut
honoriBcant Patrem: qui non honorificat Filium, non

24 honorificat Patrem, qui misit ilium. Amen, amen,
dico vobis, quia qui verbum meum audit, et credit ei,
qui rnisit me, habet vitam aeternam, et in judicium non

25 venit, sed transit a morte in vitam. Amen, amen,
dico vobis. quia venit hora, et nunc est, quando mortui
audicnt vocrm Filii Dei : et qui audierint, vivent.

26 S :m Pater habet vitam in semetipso: sic dedit

27 et Filio habere vitam in semetipso: et potestatem
dedit ei judicium facero, quia Filius hominis est.

28 Nolite mirari hoc, quia venit hora, in qua omncs, qui

i) inonumentis sunt, audient voc-m Filii Dei; et I
■ nt. qui bona fecerunt, in resurrectionem vita:: qui
30 vf.-ro mala t, in resurrectionem judicii. Non

John V. 10—32.

And it was the Sabbatli that day. "The
Jews therefore said to him that was healed,
It is the Sabbath, thou mayest not take up
thy bed. u He answered them, He that,
made me whole, lie said to me, Take up thy
bed, and walk. 12They asked him therefore,
What is that man that said to thee, Take up
thy bed, and walk ? u But he that was made
whole, knew not who it was. For Jesus
shrunk aside from the multitude standing in
the place. 14 Afterward Jesus findetli him
in the temple, and said to him, Behold thou
art made whole : sin no more, lest some
worse thing chance to thee. 15 That man
went his way, and told the Jews that it was
Jesus that made him whole. 13 Thereupon
the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did
these things on the Sabbath.

''But Jesus answered them, Mv father
worketh until now; and I do work. ls There-
upon therefore the Jews sought the more to
kill liim; because he did not only break the
Sabbath, but also he said God was his father,
making himself equal to God. 19 Jesus there-
fore answered, and said to them, Amen,
amen I say to you, The Son cannot do any-
thing of himself.but that which he seeth the
Father doing. For what things soever he
doeth, these the Son also doeth in like man-
ner. 2JForthe Father loveth the Son, and
sheweth him all tilings that himself doeth :
and greater works than these will he shew
him, that you may marvel. 21For as the
Father doth raise the dead and quiekeneth ;
so the Son also quiekeneth whom he will.
"For neither doth the Father judge any
man : but all judgment he hath given to the
Son : ^that all may honour the Son, as they
do honour the Father. He that honoureth
not the Son, doth not honour the Father,
who sent him. 24Amen, amen I say to yon,
that he which hearcth my word, and be-
lieveth him that sent me, lialh life everlast-
ing: and he cometh not into judgment, but
shall pass from death into life. * Amen,
amen I say to you, that the hour cometh,
and now it is, when the dead xhiili bear the
voice of the Son of God, and tlc\ thai have
heard, shall live. M For as the Father hatli
life in himself, so he luiih given to the Son
also to have life in himself: -<~nnd lie bath
given him power to do judgment alto, be-
cause he is tin- Son of man. 'Marvel not

33 You sent to John, and he gave testimony
to the truth. 3I Uut I receive not testimony
of man : but I say these things that you
may be saved. :'5He was the lamp burning
and shining. And you would for a time
rejoice in his light. :lf»But I have a greater
testimony than John. Tor the works which
the Father hath given me to perfect them;
the very works themselves which I do, give
testimony of me, that the Father hath sent
me. :!?And the Father that sent me, him-
self hath given testimony of me: neither
have you heard his voice at any time, nor
seen his shape, :i8and his word you have
not remaining in you; because whom he
hath sent, him you believe not. :w Search
the scriptures, for you think in them to have
life everlasting ; and the same are they that
give testimony of me: 4"and you will not
come to me that you may have life. fl Glory
of men I receive not, fiBut I have knovvn
you, that the love of God you have not in
you. 43 1 am come in the name of my Father,
and you receive me not : if another shall
come in his own name, him you will receive.
41 How can you believe, that receive glory
one of another : and the glory which is of
God only, you seek not? B Think not that
I will accuse you to the Father; there is
that accuseth you, Morses, in whom you
trust. "' For if you did believe Moyses, you
would perhaps believe me also ; for of me
he hath written. 4;And if you do not be-
lieve his writings, how will you believe my
words ?

After these things Jesus went beyond the
sea of Galilee, which is of Tiberias : 2and a
great multitude followed him, because they
saw the sit-'ns which ho did upon those
that were sick. "JesiiB therefore went up
into the mountain, and there he sat with
his Disciples. 'And the Paschewasat hand,
the festival day of the Jews. ■'■ When Jesus
therefore had lifted up his eyes, and saw
that a very great multitude comet h to him,
he saith to Philippe, Whence shall we buy
bread, that these may eat? ''And this he
said, tempting him ; for himself knew what
he would do. ' Philippe answered him, Two
hundred pennyworth of bread is not suffi-
cient for them, that every man may takes
little piece. "One of his Disciples, Andrew
the brother of Simon Peter, saith to him,
'■'There is a boy here that hath live barley
loaves, and two fishes; but what are these
among so many? '"Jesus therefore saith,
Make the men to sit down. And there was
much grass in the place. The men there-
lore sat down, in number about live thou-
sand. "Jesus therefore took the loaves;
and when ho bail given thanks, he distri-
buted to them that sat; in like manner
also of the fishes as much as they would.
uAnd after they were filled, he laid to his
Disciples, (lather the fragments that are re-
maining, lest they be lost. uThey gathered
therefore, and filled twelve baskets with

Post hax abiit Jesus trans mare Galibeai, quod est 6
Tibcriadis: et sequebatur eum multitudo magna, 2
quia videbant signa, quae faciebat super his, qui infir-
mabantur. Subiit ergo in montem Jesus: et ibi 3
seclcbat cum discipulis suis. Erat autem proximum 4
Pasc.ha, dies festus Judaxrum. Cum sublcvassct ergo 5
oculos Jesus, et vidisset quia multitudo maxima venit
ad eum, dixit ad Philippum: Unde ememus panes, ut
manduccnt hi? Hoc autem dicebat teutons eum : ipse 6
enim scicbat quid esset facturus. Kespondit ci Philip- 7
pus: Ducentorum denariorum panes non Bufficiunt eis,
ut unusquisque modicum quid accipiat. Dicit ei unus 8
ex discipulis ejus, Andreas fratcr Simonis Petri: est 9
puer unus hie, qui habet quinque panes hordeaecos, et
duos pisccs: scd hax quid sunt inter tantos? Dixit 10
ergo Jesus: Facite homines diseumbere. Erat autem
fcBnuru multum in loco. Discubucrunt ergo viri,
numcro quasi quinque millia. Accepit ergo Jesus 1 1
panes: ct cum gratias egissct, distribuit discumben-
tibus: similiter et ex piscibus quantum volebant. Ut 12
autem impleti sunt, dixit discipulis suis: Colligite quae
Buperaverunt fragmenta, nc pcrcant. Collegerunt ergo, 13

131

et impleverunt duodecim cophinos fragmentorum ex
quinque panibus hordeaceis, quae superf'uerunt his, qui

14 manducaverant. Illi ergo homines cum vidissent
quod Jesus fecerat signum, dicebant: Quia hie est

1 5 vere propheta, qui venturus est in mundum. Jesus
ergo cum cognovisset quia venturi essent, ut raperent
eum, et facerent eum regem, fugit iterum in montem

16 ipse solus. Ut autem sero factum est, descenderunt
discipuli ejus ad mare.

17 Et cum ascendissent navim, venerunt trans mare in
Capharnaum: et tenebras jam factce erant: et non

18 venerat ad eos Jesus. Mare autem, vento magno

19 flante, exsurgebat. Cum remigassent ergo quasi stadia
viginti quinque aut triginta, vident Jesum ambulantem
supra mare, et proximum navi fieri, et timuerunt.

20 21 Ille autem dicit eis: Ep-o sum, nolite timere. Volu-
erunt ergo accipere eum in navim : et statim navis luit
ad terram, in quam ibant.

22 Altera die, turba, quae stabat trans mare, vidit quia
navicula aha non erat ibi nisi una, et quia non introisset
cum discipulis suis Jesus in navim, sed soli discipuli

23 ejus abiissent: alia? vero supervenerunt naves a Tibe-
riade juxta locum ubi manducaverant panem, gratias

24 agente Domino. Cum ergo vidisset turba quia Jesus
non es=et ibi, neque discipuli ejus, ascenderunt in
naviculas, et venerunt Capharnaum quaerentes Jesum.

25 Et cum invenissent eum trans mare, dixerunt ei:
2G Rabbi, quando hue venisti? Kespondit eis Jesus, et

dixit: Amen, amen, dico vobis: qureritis me, non quia
vidistis signa, Bed quia manducastis ex panibus, et
27 saturati estis. Operaraini non cibum, qui pent, sed
qui permanet in vitam aeternam, quern Filiua hominis

fragments of the five barley loaves, which
remained to them that had eaten. "Those
men therefore, when they had seen what a
sign Jesus had done, said, That this is the
Prophet indeed that is to come into the
world. 15 Jesus therefore when he knew that
they would come to take him, and make
him kinc, he fled again into the mountain
himself alone.

1GAnd when even was come, his Disciples
went down to the sea. '?And when tliey
were gone up into the ship, they came beyond
the sea into Capharnaum; and now it was
dark, and Jesus was not come unto them.
18 And the sea arose, by reason of a great
wind that blew. 19 When they had rowed
therefore about five and twenty or thirty fur-
lontrs, they see Jesus walking upon the sea,
and to draw nigh to the ship, and they feared.
-°_But he saith to them. It is I, fear not.
21 They would therefore have taken him into
the ship ; and forthwith the ship was at the
land to which they went.

- The next day the multitude that stood
beyond the sea saw that there was no other
boat there but one, and that Jesus had not
entered into the boat with his Disciples, but
that his Disciples only were departed : 2;l but
other boats came in from Tiberias beside t ho
place where they had eaten the bread, our
Lord giving thanks. -! When therefore the
multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor
his Disciples, they went up into the boats,
and came to Capharnaum seeking Jesus.
86 And when they had found him beyond t lie
sea, they said to him, Kabbi, when earnest
thou hither? Jesus answered them, and
said, Amen, amen I say to you, you seek me
not because you have seen signs, but because
you did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
'-" Work not the meat that perisheth, but
that endureth unto life everlasting, which
the Son of man will give you. For him the

not. 3' All that the Father giveth me, shall
come to me; and him that cometh to me I
will not cast forth. 3i Because 1 descended
from heaven, not to do mine own will, but
the will of him that sent me. 39For this is
the will of him that sent me, the Father:
that all that he hath given me I lose not
thereof, but raise it in the last day. 4uAnd
this is the will of my father that sent me:
that every one that seeth the Son, and be-
lieveth in him, have life everlasting, and I
will raise him in the last day.

""The Jews therefore murmured at him,
because he had said, I am the bread which
descended from heaven: 4-and they said, Is
not this Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father
and mother we know ? How then saith he,
That I descended from heaven? 43 Jesus
therefore answered and said to them, Mur-
mur not one to another : 44 no man can come
to me, unless the Father that sent me draw
him : and I will raise him up in the last day.
45 It is written in the Prophets, And all shall
be docible of God. Every one that hath
heard of the Father, and hath learned,
cometh to me. 46Not that any man hath
seen the Father, but he which is of God:
this hath seen the Father. v Amen, amen I
say to you. He that believeth in me, hath life
everlasting. -18 I am the bread of life. I9 Four
fathers did eat; Manna in the desert, and
they died. 6I This is the bread that descend-
ethfrom heaven: that if any man eat of it, he
die not. 5I I am the living bread, that came
down from heaven. If any man cat of this
bread, he shall live for ever : and the bread
which I will give, is my flesh, for the life of
the world.

*-' The Jews therefore strove among them-
pelves, saying, How can this man give us his
flesh to eat ? M Jesus therefore said to them,
Amen, amen I say to you, Unless you eat the
flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood,
you shall not have life in you. Sl He that
eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath
life everlasting : and I will raise him up in
the last day. S5 For my flesh is meat ii
and my blood is drink indeed. MHe that
eateth my flesh, and drinketh mv blood,
abideth in me, and I in him. •' \s th,.
living father hath sent me, and 1 live by the
father ; and he that eateth me, the same also
shall live by me. "This is the bread that
came down from heaven. Not as your fat hers
did eat Manna, and died. He thai eateth
this bread, shall live forever. n These tilings
he said teaching iu the Synagogue, in Ca-
pharnaum.

m Many therefore 0f his Disciples hearing
it, said. This saying is hard, and who can
hear it ? 6I flut Jesus knowing with himself

creditis. Omne, quod datmihi Pater, ad me veniet: et 37
cum, qui venitad me, non ejiciam foras: quia descendi 38
de coelo, non ut faciam voluntatem meam, sed volun-
tatem ejus, qui misit me. Hajc est autem voluntas 39
ejus, qui misit me, Patris: ut omne, quod dedit mihi,
non perdam ex eo, sed resuscitem illud in novissimo
die. Haec est autem voluntas Patris mei, qui misit 40
me : ut omnis, qui videt Filium, et credit in eum,
habeat vitam seternam, et ego resuscitabo eum in
novissimo die.

Murmurabant ergo Judaei de illo, quiadixisset: Ego 41
sum panis vivus, qui de ccelo descendi. Et dicebant: 42
Nonne hie est Jesus filius Joseph, cujus nos novimus
patrem et matrem? Quomodo ergo dicit hie: Quia
de coelo descendi? Respondit ergo Jesus, et dixit eis: 43
Nolitc murmurare in invicem : nemo potest venire ad 44
me, nisi Pater, qui misit me, traxerit eum: et ego
resuscitabo eum in novissimo die. Est scriptum in 45
Prophetis: Et erunt omnes docibiles Dei. Omnis,
qui audivit a Patre, et didicit, venit ad me. Non 46
quia Patrem vidit quisquam, nisi is, qui est a Deo, hie
vidit Patrem. Amen, amen, dico vobis: Qui credit in 47
me, habet vitam acternain. Ego sum panis vitas. 48
Patres vestri manducavcrunt manna in deserto, et 49
mortui sunt. Hie est panis de coelo descendens: ut si 50
quis ex ipso manducaverit, non moriatur. Ego sum 5 I
panis vivus qui de coelo descendi. Si quis man-
ducaverit ex hoc pane, vivet in rcternem : et panis,
quern ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita.

Litigabant ergo Judaei ad invicem, dicentes: Quo- 52
modo potest hie nobis carnem suam dare ad mandu-
candum? Dixit ergo eis Jesus: Amen, amen, dico 53
vobis : Nisi manducaveritis carnem Filii hominis, et
biberitis ejus sanguinem, non habebitis vitam in vobis.
Qui manducat meam carnem, et bibitmeum sanguinem, 54

simo die. Caro enim mea, vcre est eibus: et sanguis 55
meus, vere est potus. Qui manducat meam carnem, 56
et bibit meum sanguinem, in me manet, et ego in illo.
Sicut misit me vivens Pater, et ego vivo propter 57
Tat rem: et qui manducat me, et ipse vivet propter me.
Hie est panis, qui de coelo descendit. Non sicut man- 58
ducaverunt patres vestri manna, et mortui sunt. Qui
manducat hunc pancm, vivet in a'ternum. Ilaec dixit 59
in svnagoga docens, in Capharnaum.

Muhi ergo audientes ex discipulis ejus, dixerunt: 60
Durus est hie scrmo, et quis potest cum audire? Sciens 61
autem Jesus apud semetipsum quia murmurarent de

John VI. 62— VII. 17,

hoc discipuli ejus, dixit eis: Hoc vos scandalizat?
62 Si ergo videritis Filium horainis ascendentem ubi erat
65 prius: Spiritus est, qui vivificat: caro non prodest

quidquam: verba, quae ego locutus sum vobis, spiritus

64 et vita sunt. Sed sunt quidam ex vobis, qui non
credunt. Sciebat enim ab initio Jesus qui essent non

65 credentes, et quis traditurus esset eum. Et dicebat:
Propterea dixi vobis, quia nemo potest venire ad me,

66 nisi fuerit ei datum a Patre meo. Ex hoc multi dis-
cipulorum ejus abierunt retro: et jam non cum alio
ambulabant.

67 Dixit ergo Jesus ad duodecim: Jsumquid et vos

68 vultis abire? Respondit ergo ei Simon Petrus: Domine,

69 ad quern ibimus? verba vitae aeternae babes. Et nos
credidimus, et cognovimus quia tu es Christus Filius

70 Dei. Respondit eis Jesus: Xonne ego vos duodecim

71 elegi: et ex vobis unus diabolus est? Dicebat autem
Judam Simonis Iscariotem: hie enim erat traditurus
eum, cum esset unus ex duodecim.

7 Post haec autem ambulabat Jesus in Galilaeam, non
enim volebat in Judaeam ambulare: quia quaerebant

2 eum Judaei interficere. Erat autem in proximo dies

3 festus Judaeorum, Scenopegia. Dixerunt autem ad
eum fratres ejus: Transi hinc, et vade in Judaeam, ut et

4 discipuli tui videant opera tua, quae facis. Nemo
quippe in occulto quid lacit, et quaerit ipse in palam

5 esse: si haec facis, manifesto, teipsum mundo. Neque

nim fratres ejus credebant in eum. Dicit ergo eis
Jesus: Tempus meum nondum advenit: tempus autem

7 vestrum semper est paratum. Non potest mundus
odiwo vos: me autem odit : quia ego testimonium

8 perhibeo de illo quod opera ejus mala sunt. Vos as-
cenditc ad diem festum hunc, ego autem non ascendo
ad diem festum i.sturn: quia meum tempus nondum
impletam

9, 10 Haec cum dixisset, ipse mansit in Galiloea. Ut

autem ascenderunt fratres ejus, tunc et ipse ascendit ad

I I diem festum non manifesto, sed quad in occulta Judiei

Quidam enim dicebant: Quia bonus est. Alii autem

bant: N L aeducit turbas. Nemo tamen palam

that his Disciple9 murmured at this, he said
to them, Doth this scandalize you? ^If
then you shall see the Son of man ascend
where he was before ? 63 It is the spirit that
quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing. The
words that I have spoken to you, be spirit
and life. HBut there be certain of you that
believe not ; for Jesus knew from the begin-
ning who they were that did not believe, and
who he was that would betray him. M And
he said, Therefore did I say to you, that no
man can come to me, unless it be given him
of my Father. ^ After this many of his Dis-
ciples went back ; and now they walked not
with him.

67 Jesus therefore said to the Twelve, What,
will you also depart ? ** Simon Peter there-
fore answered him, Lord, to whom shall we
go ? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 And we believe and have known that thou
art Christ the Son of God. ;o Jesus answered
them. Have not I chosen you the Twelve ;
and of you one is a devil? '' And he meant
Judas Iscariot, Simon's son ; for this same
was to betray him, whereas he was one of the
Twelve.

After these things Jesus walked into Gali-
lee, for he would not walk into Jewry ; be-
cause the Jews sought to kill him. 2Ancl
the festival day of the Jews, Scenopegia, was
at hand. 3And his brethren said to him,
Pass from hence, and go into Jewry ; that
thy Disciples also may see thy works which
thou doest. 4For no man doetli anything
in secret, and seeketh himself to be in public.
If thou do these things, manifest thyself to
the world. sFor neither did his brethren
believe in him. 6 Jesus therefore saith to
them, My time is not yet come; but your
time is always ready. 'The world cannot
hate you, but me it hateth ; because I give
testimony of it, that the works thereof are
evil. 8Go you up to this festival day : I go
not up to this festival day; because my time
is not yet accomplished.

,J When ho had said these tilings, himself
tarried in Galilee. luP>ut after Ins brethren
were gone up, then he also went up to tho
festival day, not openly, hut as it were in »( •-

of liim, lie shall understand of the doctrine
whether it be of God, or I speak of myself.
"He that Bpeaketh of himself, seeketn his
own glory. Bui he thai seeketn the glory of
him that sent him, lie is true, and injustice
in him there is not. 1J Did not Moyscs give
you the law, and none of you doeth the law?
'-" Why seek you to kill me? The multitude
answered, and said, Thou hast a devil, who
secketh to kill thee? 21 Jesus answered, and
said to them, One work I have done, and
you do all marvel. '-^ Therefore Moyscs gave
you circumcision : 'not that it is of Moj sea,
but of the fathers, and in the Sabbath you
circumcise a man. -■'If a man receive cir-
cumcision in the Sabbath, that the law of
Moyses be not broken : are you angry at me
because I have healed a man wholly in the
Sabbath ? 24 Judge not according to the face,
but judge just judgment.

'-"'Certain therefore of Jerusalem said, Is
not this he whom they seek to kill? ^And
behold, he Bpeaketh openly, and they say no-
thing to him. Have the Princes known in-
deed that this is Christ? -'lint this man
we know whence he is. But when Christ
••ometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
-8 Jesus therefore cried in the temple teach,
ing, and saying, Both me you do know, and
whence 1 am you know. And of myself I am
not come, but he is true that sent me, whom
you know not. -,J I know him, because I am
of him, and he sent inc. ■ They sought
therefore to apprehend him; and no man
laid hands upon him, because his hour was
not yet come. 3I But of the multitude many
believed in him, and said, Christ when he
Cometh, shall he do more signs than these
winch this man doeth? MThe Pharisees
heard the multitude murmuring these things
touching him ; and the Princes and Phari-
sees sent ministers to apprehend him. 33 Jesus
therefore said lolheni, Yet a little time I am
with you; and 1 goto him that sent me.
•A You seek me, and shall not find : and
\\ here I am, you cannot come. »5 The Jews
therefore said among themselves, Whither
will this man go, that we shall not find him?
Will he go into the dispersion of the Gen-
tiles, and teach the Gentiles? MWhat is
this Baying that he hath said, You shall seek
me, and shall not lind : and where I am,
you cannot conic.

'-'' And in the last, the great day of the fes-
tivity , Jesus stood and cried, Baying, If any
man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.
:wllc that believeth in me, as the scripture
saith, Out of his belli/ sh<ill flow rivers if
livinij water. -"(And this he said of the
Spirit that they should receive which be-
lieved in him; for as \et the Spirit was not
given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. )

40Of that multitude therefore, when they
had heard these words of his, some said,
This is the Prophet indeed. 4I Ol hers said.
This is Christ. But certain said, Why, doth

quoeritis interficere? Eespondit turba, et dixit: Da>

Jesus, ct dixit eis: Unum opus feci, et omncs miramini.

ex semine David, et de Bethlehem castello, ubi erat

43 David, venit Christus? Dissensio itaque facta est in

44 turba propter eum. Quidam autern ex ipsis volebant
apprehendere eum : sed nemo misit super eum manus.

45 venerunt ergo ministri ad Pontifices et Pharisseos. Et

46 dixerunt eis illi : Quare non adduxistis ilium ? Ke-
sponderunt ministri : Xumquam sic locutus est homo,

47 sicut hie homo. Eesponderunt ergo eis Pharisrei:

48 Xumquid et vos seducti estis? Xumquid ex principi-

49 bus aliquis credidit in eum, aut ex Pharisaeis? Sed

50 turba haec, quae non novit legem, maledicti sunt. Dixit
Xicodemus ad eos, ille, qui venit ad eum nocte, qui

5 1 unus erat ex ipsis: Xumquid lex nostra judicat
hominem, nisi prius audierit ab ipso, et cognoverit

52 quid faciat? Eesponderunt, et dixerunt ei: Xumquid
et tu Galileus es? Scrutare Scripturas, et vide quia

53a Galilaea propheta non surgit. Et reversi sunt unus-
quisque in domum suam.
8 Jesus autem perrexit in montem Oliveti : Et diluculo

2 iterum venit in templum, et omnis populus venit ad
eum, et sedens docebat eos.

3 Adducunt autem Scribae et Pharissei mulierem in adul-

4 terio deprehensam : et statuerunt earn in medio, et dix-
erunt ei: Magister, haec mulier modo deprehensa est in

5 adulterio. In lege autem Moyses mandavit nobis hujus-

6 modi lapidare. Tu ergo quid dicis? Hoc autem diccbant
tentantes eum, ut possent accusare eum. Jesus autem

7 inclinans sedeorsum, digito scribebat in terra. Cum ergo
perseverarent interrogantes eum, erexit se, et dixit eis:
Qui sine peccato est vestrum, primus in illam lapidem

8 mittat. Et iterum se inclinans, scribebat in terra.

Yudientes autem unus post unum exibant, incipicntcs

Christ come from Galilee ? 4: Doth not the
scripture say, that of the seed of David, aud
from Bethlehem the town where David was,
Christ doth come ? 43 Therefore there arose
dissension in the multitude for him. 4i And
certain of them would have apprehended
him ; but no man laid hands upon him.
45 The ministers therefore came to the chief
priests and the Pharisees. And they said to
them, Why have you not brought him?
4;The ministers answered, Never did there
man so speak, as this man. 47 The Pharisees
therefore answered them, Why, are you also
seduced? 4SHath any of the Princes be-
lieved in him, or of the Pharisees ? 49 but
this multitude that knoweth not the law,
are accursed. ^Nicodemus said to them,
he that came to them by night, who was one
of them, 51Doth our law judge a man, unless
if. first hear him, and know what he doeth ?
:-They answered, and said to him, Why, art
thou also a Galilean? Search, and see that
from Galilee a Prophet riseth not. 53And
every man returned to his house.

And Jesus went into the mount-Olivet:
2 and early in the morning again he came
into the temple, and the people came to him,
and sitting, he taught them.

3 And the Scribes and Pharisees bring a
woman taken in adultery; and they did set
her m the midst, 4 and said to him, Master,
this woman was even now taken in adultery.
5 And in the law Moyses commanded us to
stone such. What sayest thou therefore?
c And this they said tempting him, that they
might accuse him. But Jesus bowing him-
self down, with his finger wrote in the earth.
7 When they therefore continued asking him;
he lifted up himself, and said to them, lie
that is without sin of you, let. him first throw
the stone at her. 8 And again bowing him-
self, lie wrote in the earth. ,J And they, hear-
ing, went out one by one, beginning at the
seniors ; and JeBQ8 alone remained, and the
woman standing in the midst. '"And Jesus
lifting op himself, said to her.Woman, where

are they that aeeused thee? hath no man
Condemned thee? "Who said, No man,
Lord. And Jesus said, Neither will I con-
demn thee. Go, and now sin no more.

'-'Again therefore Jesus spnke to them,

laying, I am the light of the world ■. he that

fofloweth me, walketh not in darkness; but

shall have the light of life. BThe Phari-

lerefore said to bim, Then giresl U

ment is true; because I am not alone, but
I and lie that sent me, the Father. 17And
in your law it is written, that the testimony
of two men is true. 131 am he that give
testimony of myself, and he that sent me,
the Father, givetb testimony of me. "They
said therefore to him. Where is thy father?
Jesus answered, Neither me do you know,
nor my Father. If you did know me, per-
haps you might know my Father also.
'■"These words Jesus spake in the Treasury,
teaching in the temple ; and no man appre-
hended him, because his hour was not yet
come.

'-'Again therefore Jesus said to them, I
go, and you shall seek me, and shall die in
vonr sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.
-;The Jews therefore said, Why, will he kill
himself, because he saith, Whither I go, you
cannot come ? a And he said to them, You
arc from beneath, I am from above ; you are
of this world, 1 am not of this world. -••There-
fore I said to you that you shall die in your
sins: for if you believe not that I am he,
you shall die in your sin. 2,They said there-
fore to him. Who art thou? Jesus said to
them, The beginning, who also speak to you.
88 Many things I have to speak and judge of
you : but he that sent me, is true : and what
I have heard of him, these things I speak in
the world. ^And they knew not that he
said to them that his father was God. * Je-
sus therefore said to them, When you shall
have exalted the son of man, then you shall
know that I am he, and of myself I do no-
thing, but as the Father hath taught me,
these things 1 speak; -'-'and he that sent me,
is with me: and he hath not left me alone,
because the tilings that please him I do
id ways. 3I When he spake these things, many
believed in him.

1,1 Jesus therefore said to them that be-
lieved him, the Jews, If you abide in my
word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32 And you shall know the truth, and the
truth shall make you free. BThey answered
him, We are the seed of Abraham, and we
never served any man: how gayest thou,
You shall be free? M Jesus answered them,
Amen, amen I say to you, thai everyone
which commit tetli sin, is the servant of sin :
"•and the servant ahideth not in the house
for ever ; the son abideth for ever. ■"' I f there-
Fore the son make you free, you shall be free
indeed. 3r 1 know that you are the children
of Abraham; but you iseek to kill me, be-
cause my word takel li not in you. ;s 1 ipi ah
that which I have seen with my father; and
you do the things that you have seen with
your father. "They answered, and said to
him, Our hither is A'hraham. Jesus saith to
them, If you be the children of Abraham,
do the works of Abraham. '"' Uut now, jrou

seek to kill me, a man that have spoken the
truth to you, which I have heard of God:

this did not Lbraham, (l You do the works

of your father. They said therefore to him,

non sum: sed ego, ct qui misit me, Pater. Et in lege 17
vestra scriptum est, quiaduorum liominum testimonium
verum est. Ego sum, qui testimonium perliibeo de 18
meipso: et testimonium perhibct de me, qui misit
me, Pater. Dicebant ergo ei : Ubi est Pater tuus? Re- 19
spondit Jesus : Neque me scitis, neque Patrem meum: si
mesciretis, forsitan et Patrem meumsciretis. Ha3c verba 20
locutus est Jesus in gazopliylacio, docens in templo : et
nemo apprelienditeum, quia necdum venerat hora ejus.

Dixit ergo iterum eis Jesus : Ego vado, et qurcretis 2 1
me, et in peccato vestro moriemini. Quo ego vado,
vos non potestis venire. Dicebant ergo Juda'i: Xum- 22
quid interficiet scmetipsum, quia dixit: Quo ego vado,
vos non potestis venire? Et dicebat eis: Vos de 23
deorsum estis, ego de supernis sum. Vos de mundo
hoc estis, ego non sum de hoc mundo. Dixi ergo 24
vobis quia moriemini in peccatis vestris: si enim
non credideritis quia ego sum, moriemini in peccato
vestro. Dicebant ergo ei: Tu quis es? Dixit eis 25
Jesus: Principium, qui et loquor vobis. Multa habeo 26
de vobis loqui, et judicare: sed qui me misit, verax
est: et ego quaj audivi ab eo, haec loquor in mundo.
Et non cognoverunt quia Patrem ejus dicebat Deum. 2~
Dixit ero;o eis Jesus: Cum exaltaveritis Filium hominis, 28
tunc cognoscetis quia ego sum, ct a meipso facio nihil,
sed sicut docuit me Pater, luce loquor: et qui me 29
misit, mccum est, ct non reliquit me solum : quia ego
qua) placita sunt ei, facio semper. Ihec illo loquente, 30
multi crediderunt in eum.

Dicebat ergo Jesus ad eos, qui crediderunt ei, 31
Judaeos: Si vos manseritis in sermone meo, vcre dis-
cipuli mei critis: et cognoscetis veritatem, et Veritas 32
liberabit vos. Rcsponderunt ei : Semen Abrahse ramus, 33
et nemini servivimus unquam: quomodo tu di<
Liberi critis? Respondit eis Jesus: Amen, amen, 34
dico vobis: quia omnis, qui facit peocatum, servus est
peccati. Servus autem non manet in domo in sternum ? 35
i'llius autem manet in sternum. Si ergo vos Alius 36
liberavit, vere liberi critis. Scio quia lilii Abrahse $7
estis: sed quaeritis me interficere, quia sermo meus non
capit in vobis. Ego quod vidi apud Patrem meum, ^8
loquor: et vos qua) Vldistis apua patrem vestrum,
facitis. Rcsponderunt, ct dixerunt ei: Pater nostcr 39
Abraham est. Dicit t-i^ Jesus: Si filii Abrahse estis,
opera Abrahse facite. Nunc autem quaeritis me inter- 40
ficere, hominem, qui veritatem vobis locutus sum, quam
audivi a Deo: hoc Abraham non fecit. Vos lacit is 4. 1
opera patria vestri. Dixerunt itaquc ei: Nos ex

137

fomicatione non sumus nati: unum patrem habemus

42 Deum. Dixit ergo eis Jesus: Si Deus pater vester
esset: diligeretis utique me : ego enim ex Deo process:,
et veni: neque enim a meipso veni, sed ille me misit.

43 Quare loquelam meam non cognoscitis? Quia non

44 potestis audire sermonem meum. Yos ex patre diabolo
estis: et desideria patris vestri vultis facere: ille
homicida erat ab initio, et in veritate non stetit:
quia non est Veritas in eo: cum loquitur mendacium
ex propriis loquitur, quia mendax est, et pater

45 ejus. Ego autem si veritatem dico, non creditis

46 mihi. Quis ex vobis arguet me de peccato? Si

47 veritatem dico vobis, quare non creditis mihi? Qui
ex Deo est, verba Dei audit. Propterea vos non

48 auditis, quia ex Deo non estis. Responderunt ergo
Judaei, et dixerunt ei: Xonne bene dicimus nos quia

49 Samaritanus es tu, et daBmonium habes? Respondit
Jesus: Ego daemonium non habeo: sed honorifico

50 Patrem meum, et vos inhonorastis me. Ego autem
non quaero gloriam meam: est qui quaerat, et judicet.

51 Amen, amen, dico vobis: si quis sermonem meum

52 servaverit, mortem non videbit in aeternum. Dixerunt
ergo Judaei : Xunc cognovimus quia daemonium babes.
Abraham mortuus est, et Prophetae, et tu dicis: Si
quis sermonem meum servaverit, non gustabit mortem

53 in aeternum. Xumquid tu major es patre nostro
Abraham, qui mortuus est? et Prophetae mortui sunt.

54 Quern te ipsum facis: Respondit Jesus: Si ego glori-
fico meipsum, gloria mea nihil est: est Pater meus, qui
glorifieat me, quern vos dicitis quia Deus vester est.
Et non cognovistis eurn : ego autem novi eum. Et si
dixero quia non scio eum, ero similis vobis, mendax.
Sed scio eum, et sermonem ejus servo. Abraham pater
vester exultavit ut viderct diem meum : vidit, et gavisus

would love me ; for from God I proceeded, and
came j for I came not of myself, but he sent
me. *3 Why do you not know my speech ?
Because you cannot hear my word. 44 You
are of your father the Devil, and the desire9
of your father you will do ; he was a man-
killer from the beginning, and he stood not
in the verity, because verity is not in him :
when he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his
own, because he is a liar, and the father
thereof. ^But because I say the verity, you
believe me not. 46 Which of you shall argue
me of sin ? If I say the verity : why do you
not believe me? 4? He that is of God, heareth
the words of God. Therefore you hear not,
because you are not of God. 43The Jews
therefore answered, and said to him, Do not
we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and
and hast a devil ? 49 Jesus answered, I have
no devil; but I do honour my Father, and
you have dishonoured me ; 5J but I seek not
mine own glory ; there is that seeketh and
judgeth.

51 Amen, amen I say to you, If any man
keep my word, he shall not see death
for ever. BThe Jews therefore said, Now
we have known that thou hast a devil. Abra-
ham is dead, and the Prophets : and thou
sayest, If any man keep my word, he shall
not taste death for ever. M Why, art thou
greater than our father Abraham, who is
dead? and the Prophets are dead. Whom
dost thou make thyself ? H Jesus answered.
If I do glorify myself, my glory is nothing.
It is my father that glorifieth me, whom you
say that he is your God. 65And you have
not known him, but I know him. And if I
shall say that I know him not, I shall beliko
to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do
us word. °6 Abraham your father re-
joiced that lie mightsee my day : and he saw,
and was glad. ',; The Jews therefore said lo
him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and
hast thou seen Abraham? 3S Jesus said
to them, Amen, amen I say to you, before
that Abraham was made, I am. MThejr
took stones therefore to east at him: but
Jesus hid himself, and went out of the
temple.

him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is
interpreted, Sent. He went therefore, and
washed ; and he came seeing.

s Therefore the neighbours, and they which
had seen him before, that he was a beggar,
said, Is not this he that sat, and begged?
Others said, That this is he. 9 But ot hers,
No, not so, but he is like him. But he said,
Thai I am he. luThey said therefore to him,
How were thine eyes opened? nHe an-
swered, That man that is called Jesus, made
clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said to
me, Go to the pool of Siloe, and wash. .And
I went, and washed, and saw. 12And they
said to him, Where is he? lie saith, I know
not. 13 They bring him that had been blind,
to the Pharisees. 14 And it was the Sabbath
when Jesus made the clay, and opened his
eyes.

15 Again therefore the Pharisees asked him,
how he saw. But he said to them, He put
olay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and I see.
'•Certain therefore of the Pharisees said,
This man is not of God, that keepcth not
the Sabbath, But others said, How can a
man that is a sinner do these signs ?_ And
there was a schism among then). ''They
say therefore to the blind again. Thou, what
gayest thou of him that opened thine eyes ?
And he said, That he is a Prophet. lsThe
Jews therefore did not believe of him, that
lie had been blind and saw, until they called
the parents of him that saw, r'and asked
them, saying, Is this your son, whom you
say that he was born blind ? how then doth
he now see? -' II is parents answered them,
and said, We know that this is our son, and
thai he was born blind : 21 but how he now
seeth, we know not, or who hath opened his
eyes, we know not, ask himself; he is of age,
let himself apeak of himself. '--These things his
parents said, because they feared the Jews;
for the Jews had now conspired, that if any
man should confess him to be Christ, he
should be put out of the synagogue. nThere-
fore did his parents say. That he is of ace,
ask himself. -'They therefore again called
the man that had been blind, and said to
him, (live glory to G^od; we know that this
man is a sinner. -'He therefore said to
them. Whether he be a sinner, I know not ;
one thing I know, that whereas I was blind,
now I sec. ^They said therefore to him,
What did he to thee? how did he open thine
eyesf -r He answered them, I have now told
you, and you have heard; why will you hear
it again? will von also become his disciples?

thou his disciple : but we are the disciples of

them, For in this it is marvellous that you
know not whence he is, and he hath opened
mine eyes ; 31and we know that sinners God
doth not hear: but if a man be a server of
God, and do the will of him, him he heareth.
3iFrom the beginning of the world it hath
not been heard that any man hath opened
the eyes of one born blind. a Unless this
man were of God, he could not do anything.
31 They answered and said to him, Thou wast
wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us?
And they did cast him forth.

33 Jesus heard that they cast him forth :
and when he had found him, he said to him,
Dost thou believe in the son of God? 35He
answered, and said, Who is he, Lord, that I
may believe in him ? 3- And Jesus said to
him, Both thou hast seen him ; and he that
talketh with thee, he it is. 3i But he said,
I believe, Lord. And falling down he adored
him. J9 And Jesus said to him, For judgment
camel into this world: that they that see
not, may see ; and they that see, may become
blind. ,i0 And certain of the Pharisees that
were with him, heard; and they said to him,
Why, are we also blind? 41 Jesus said to
them, If you were blind, you should not have
sin : but now you say, That we see. Your
siu remaineth.

Amen, amen I say to you, he thatentercth
not by the door into the fold of the sheep,
but climbeth up another way, he is a thief
and a robber. 2 But he that entereth by the
door, is the Pastor of the sheep. 3To this
man the porter openeth, and the sheep hear
his voice ; and he calleth his own sheep by
name, and leadeth them forth. 4 And when
he hath let forth his own sheep, he goeth
before them : and t lie sheep follow him, be-
cause they know his voice. 3 But a stranger
they follow not, but flee from him : because
they know not the voice of strangers. "This
proverb Jesus said to them. But they knew
not what he spake to them.

"Jesus therefore said to them again, Amen,
amen 1 say to you, that I am the door of the
sheep. 8And how many soever have come,
are thieves and robbers; but the sheep heard
them not. 'lam the door. By me if any

my life, that I may take it again. 13No man
taketh it away from me, but 1 yield it of my-
self; and I have power to yield it, and I
have power to take it again. This command-
ment I received of my father.

19 A dissension rose again among the Jews
for these words. ^ And many of them said,
lie hath a devil, and is mad ; why hear you
him ? 2I Others said, These are not the words
of one that hath a devil : can a devil open
the eyes of blind men?

22 And the Dedication was in Jerusalem :
and it was winter. 2,And Jesus walked in
the temple, in Salomon's porch. 24The Jews
therefore compassed him round about, and
said to him, How long doest thou hold our
soul in suspense? if thou be Christ, tell us
openly. 2i Jesus answered thern, I speak to
you, and you believe not; the works that I
do in the name of my Father, they give testi-
mony of me; -"'but you do not believe, be-
cause you are not of my sheep. ^My sheep
hear my voice: and I know them, and they
follow me. 2S And I give them life everlast-
ing : and they shall not perish for ever, and
no man shall pluck them out of my hand.
;'J.My father, that which lie hath given me,
is greater than all : and no man can pluck
them out of the hand of my father. ^I and
the Father are one.

31 The Jews took up stones, to stone him.
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works I
have shewed you from my father, for which
of those works do you stone me ? :a The
Jews answered him, For a good work we
stone thee not, but for blasphemy, and be-
cause thou being a man, inakest thyself God.
•■4 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in
your law, that I .laid, you are gods I Mlf
he called them gods, to whom the word of
God was made, and the scripture cannot be
broken: x whom the Father hath sanctified
and sent into the world, say you. That thou
blasphemest, because 1 said I am the son
of God? 3|"If 1 do not the works of my
father, believe me not. ^But if I do, and
if you will not believe me, believe the works ;
that you may know and believe that the
father is in me, and 1 in the Father. "They
sought therefore to apprehend him: and ho
went forth out of their hands.

40 And lie went again beyond Jordan into
that place where John was baptizing first i
and he tarried there; 41 and many came to
him, and they said, That John indeed did

said of this man, were true. u And many
believed in hiin.

Salomonis. Circumdederunt ergo eum Judeei, et dice- 24
bant ei: Quousque animam nostram tollis? si tu es
Christus, die nobis palam. Respondit cis Jesus: Loquor 25

Patris mei, hacc testimonium perhibent de me: sed vos 26
non crcditis, quia non estis ex ovibus meis. Oves mex 27

quod eorum opus me lapidatis? Rcsponderunt ei Judivi: 33
Do bono opere non lapidamus te, sed dc blasphemia;
et quia tu homo cum sis, facis teipsum Deum. Re- 34
sponditeis Jesus: Konne scriptum est in lege vestra:

5 gloria Dei, at glorificetur Filius Dei per earn. Dilige-

6 Lazarum. Ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur, tunc

7 quidem mansit in eodem loco duobus diebus. Deinde
post hzec dixit discipulis suis: Eamus in Judasam

8 iterum. Dicunt ei discipuli: Rabbi, nunc quasrebant

9 te Judaei lapidare, et iterum vadis illuc? Respondit
Jesus: Xonne duodecim sunt horae diei? Si quis
ambulaverit in die, non ofFendit, quia lucem hujus

10 mundi videt: si autem ambulaverit in nocte, ofFendit,

1 1 quia lux non est in eo. Ha3c ait, et post hasc dixit eis:
Lazarus amicus noster dormit : sed vado ut a somno

1 2 excitem eum. Dixerunt ergo discipuli ejus: Domine,

1 3 si dormit, salvus erit. Dixerat autem Jesus de morte
ejus: illi autem putaverunt quia de dormitione somni

14 diceret. Tunc ergo Jesus dixit eis manifeste: Lazarus

15 mortuusest: et gaudeo propter vos, ut credatis, quoniam

16 non eram ibi : sed eamus ad eum. Dixit ergo Thomas,

wiped hi9 feet with her hair : whose brother
Lazaru9 was 3ick.) 3His sisters therefore
sent to him saying. Lord, behold, he whom
thou lovest, is sick. 4And Jesus hearing,
said to them, This sickness i9 not to death,
but for the glory of God; that the son of
God may be glorified by it. 5And Jesus
loved Martha, and her sister Mary, and
Lazarus. 6As he heard therefore that he
was sick, then he tarried in the same place
two days. 'Then after this he saith to his
Disciples, Let us go into Jewry again. 8The
Disciples say to him, Rabbi, now the Jews
sought to stone thee : and goest thou thither
again? 9 Jesus answered, Are there not
twelve hours of the day ? If a man walk in
the day, he stumbleth not : because he seeth
the light of this world: 10but if lie walk in
the night, he stumbleth, because the light is
not in him. u These things he said : and
after this he saith to them, Lazarus our friend
sleepeth : but I go that I may raise him from
sleep. ^His Disciples therefore said, Lord,
if he sleep, he shall be safe. VJ But Jesus
spake of his death : aud they thought that he
spake of the sleeping of sleep. u Then, there-
fore, Jesus said to them plainly, Lazarus is
dead : u and I am glad for your sake, that
you may believe, because I was not there":
but let us go to him. 16 Thomas therefore,
who is called Didymus, said to his con-
disciples, Let us also go, to die with him.

'"Jesus therefore came, and found him now
having been four days in the grave. (ls And
Bethania was nigh to Jerusalem about fifteen
furlongs.) 1J And many of the Jews were
come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them
concerning their brother. -° Martha, then-
fore, when she heard that Jesus was come,
went to meet him : but Marie sat at home.
:1 Martha therefore said to Jesus, Lord, if
thou hadst been here, my brother had not
died; Bbut now also I know that what
things soever thou shalt ask of God, God will
give thee. a Jesus saith to her, Thy brother
shall rise again. •* Martha saith to him, I
know that, he shall rise again in the resurrec-
tion, in the last day. "Jesus said to her, I

it was a cave : and a stone was laid over it.
39 Jesus saith, Take away the stone. Martha,
the sister of him that was dead, saith to him,
Lord, now he stinketh, for he is now of four
days. ^ Jesus saith to her. Did not I say to
thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the
glory of God? 41They took therefore the
Stone away. And Jesus lifting his eyes up-
ward, said, Father,! give thee thanks that
thou hast heard me. °And 1 did know that
thou dost always hear me, but for the people
that standeth about, have I said it ; that they
mar believe that thou hast sent me. "'•' When
he had said these things, he cried with aloud
voice, Lazarus, come forth. w And forth-
with he came forth that had been dead,
bound feet and hands with winding-bands;
and his face was tied with a napkin. Jesus
said to them, Loose him, and let him go.

"Many therefore of the Jews that were
come to Marie and Martha, and had seen the
things that Jesus did, believed in him. '"And
certain of them went to the Pharisees, and
told them the things that Jesus did. ■''The
chief priests therefore and the pharisees ga-
thered a council, and said, What do we, for
this man doeth many signs. Islf we let
him alone so, all will believe in him: and
the Romans will come, and take away our
place and nation. *But one of them, named
Caiphas, being tho high priest of that year,
said to them, You know nothing, "neither
do you consider that it is expedient for us
that one man die lor the people, and the
whole nation perish not. n And this he said
not of himself: but being the high priest of
that year, be prophesied that Jesus should
die for the nation: '-and not only lor the
nation, but to gather into one the children
of God that were dispersed. ■From that
day therefore they devised to kill him.
•''' Jesus therefore walked no more openly
among the Jews, but he went into the
country beside the desert unto a city that
is called Kphrem, and there he abode with
his Disciples,

Lnd the Paseheoflhc Jews was at hand:

tcs, infremuit spiritu, et turbavit seipsum, et dixit: 34
Ubi posuistis cum? Dicunt ei: Domine, veni, et vide.
Et lacrymatus est Jesus. Dixerunt ergo Judau: 35, 36
Ecce quomodo amabat eum. Quidam autem ex ipsis 37
dixerunt: Xon poterat hie, qui aperuit oculos ea'ci

fremens in scmctipso, venit ad monumentum: erat

Ait Jesus: Tollite lapidem. Dicit ei Martha soror 39
ejus, qui mortuus fuerat : Domine, jam fcetet, quatri-
duanus est enim. Dicit ei Jesus: Konne dixi tibi quo- 40
niam si crcdideris, videbis gloriam Dei? Tulcrunt ergo 41
lapidem: Jesus autem elcvatis sursum oculis, dixit:
Pater gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me. Ego autem 42
scicbam quia semper me audis, sed propter populum,
qui circumstat, dixi : ut credant quia tu me misisti.
Haec cum dixissct, voce magna clamavit: Lazare, veni 43
foras. Et statim prodiit qui fuerat mortuus, iigatue 44

Multi ergo ex Judans, qui vencrant ad Mariam et 45
Martham, ct vidcrant qua? fecit Jesus, crediderunt in
eum. Quidam autem ex ipsis abicrunt ad Pharisa^os, 46
et dixerunt eis quae fecit Jesus. Collegcrunt ergo 47

pro gente, sed ut lilios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congre-

56 sanctificarent seipsos. Quaerebant ergo Jesum: et collo-
quebantur ad invicera, in templo stantes: Quid putatis,
quia non venit ad diem festum? Dederant autem
Pontifices et Pharisa?i mandatum, ut si quis cognoverit
ubi sit, indicet, ut apprehendant eum.

12 Jesus ergo ante sex dies Paschae venit Bethaniam,
ubi Lazarus fuerat mortuus, quern suscitavit Jesus.

2 Fecerunt autem ei coenam ibi: et Martha ministrabat,
Lazarus vero unus erat ex discumbentibus cum eo.

3 Maria ergo accepit libram unguenti nardi pistici,pretiosi,
et unxit pedes Jesu, et extersit pedes ejus capillis suis :

4 et domus impleta est ex odore unguenti. Dixit ergo
unus ex discipulis ejus, Judas Iscariotes, qui erat eum

5 traditurus: Quare hoc unguentum non veniit trecentis

6 denariis, et datum est egenis? Dixit autem hoc, non
quia de egenis pertinebat ad eum, sed quia fur erat, et

7 loculos habens, ea, quae mittebantur, portabat. Dixit
ergo Jesus : Sinite illam ut in diem sepulturoe mea?

8 servet illud. Pauperes enim semper habetis vobiscum :

9 me autem non semper habetis. Cognovit ergo turba
multa ex Judaus quia illic est : et venerunt, non prop-
ter Jesum tan turn, sed ut Lazarum viderent, quern

10 suscitavit a mortuis. Cogitaverunt autem principes

salem before the Pasche to sanctify them-
selves. 5S They sought Jesus therefore : and
they communed one with another, standing
in the temple, What think you, in that he
is not come to the festival day? And the
chief Priests and Pharisees had given com-
mandment, that if any man should know
where he was, he should tell, that they might
apprehend him.

Jesus therefore six days before the Pasche
came to Bethauia, where Lazarus was, that
had been dead, whom Jesus raised. 'And
they made him a supper there: and Martha
ministered, but Lazarus was one of them
that sat at the table with him. 3 Mary there-
fore took a pound of ointment of right spike-
nard, precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus,
and wiped his feet with her hair: and the
house was filled of the odour of the oint-
ment. ' One therefore of his disciples, Judas
Iscariote, he that was to betray him, said,
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three-
hundred pence, and given to the poor ? 6 And
he said this, not because he cared for the
poor: but because he was a thief, and having
the purse, carried the things that were put
in. ' Jesus therefore said, Let her alone that
she may keep it for the day of my burial.
3 For the poor you have always with you:
but me you shall not have always. 9 A great
multitude therefore of the Jews knew that
he was there : and they came, not for Jesus
only, but that they might see Lazarus, whom
he raised from the dead. 1013ut the chief
Priests desired for to kill Lazarus also : u be-
cause many for him of the Jews went away,
and believed in Jesus.

13 And on the morrow a great multitude
that was come to the festival day, when they
had heard that Jesus cometh to Jerusalem :
,:' they took the boughs of palms, and went
forth to meet him, and cried, Mosanna,blessed
is he that cometh in the name of our Lord,
the king of Israel. llAnd Jesus found a
young ass, and sale upon it, as it is written,
'■"' />•'//• not, daughter of Sion : behold, thy
/ cometh, sitting upon an ass's colt.

I oeee things his disciples did not know at
the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then
they remembered that these things had been
written of him, and these things they did to
him. l;Tlie multitude therefore gave testi-
mony, which was with him when be called
Lazarus out of the grave, and raised him

from 1 lie dead. a For therefore also the multi-
tude came to meet him, because they heard
that he hud dune this Sign. '''The I'hari-

• therefore said among themselves, l>o
you see thai we prevail nothing f behold, the
whole world is gone after him.

■ \nd there were certain Qentiles of them

that came up to adoiv m tin- festival day.

I,,, 1 therefore came to Philippe, who was

of Bi t bsaida of Galilee, and desired him,

saving. Sir, we are desirous to see Jeans.

Philippe cometh, and telleth Andrew.

11 Andrew and Philippe told Jesus.

remaineth alone; but if it die. it bringeth
much fruit. :5He that loveth his life, shall
lose it : and lie that hateth his life in this
world, doth keep it to life everlasting. ^If
any man minister to me, let him follow me :
and where I am, there also shall my minister
be. If any man minister to me, my father
will honour him. " Now my soul is troubled.
And what shall I say ? Father, save me from
this hour. But therefore came I into this
hour. S8 Father, glorify thy name. A voice
therefore came from heaven, Both I have
glorified it, and again I will glorify it. aThe
multitude therefore that stood and had
heard, said that it thundered. Others said,
An Angel spake to him. x Jesus answered,
and said, This voice came not for me, but for
your sake. 3I Now is the judgment of the
•world : now the Prince of tins world shall be
cast forth. ° And I, if I be exalted from the
earth, will draw all things to myself. (;3And
this he said, signifying what death he should
die,) 3,The multitude answered him, Wo
have heard out of the law that Christ abideth
forever: and howsavestthou, TheSonof man
must be exalted ? Who is this Son of man ?
35 Jesus therefore said to them. Yet a little
while, the light is among you. Walk whiles
you have the light, that the darkness over-
take you not. And he that walketh in dark-
ness.knoweth not whither he goeth. & Whiles
you have the light, believe in the light, that
you may be the children of light. These
things Jesus spake, and he went away, and
hid himself from them.

3" And whereas he had done so many signs
before them, they believed not in him: "that
the saying of Fsay the Prophet might he
fulfilled, which he said. Lord, who hath be-
lieved the hearing of ux 1 and the arm of
our Lord to whom hath it been mealed ?
33 Therefore they coidd not believe, because
Esay said again,40 lie hath blinded their ei/ex,
and indurated their heart : that they may
•not xee with their e>/ex, nor understand iri/h
their heart, and be converted, and T heal
them. '"These things *w\t\ Esaie, when he
saw his glory, and spake of him. 4-'But yet.
of the Princes also many believed in him:
but for the Pharisees they did not confess,
that they might not be cast out of the syna-
gogue ; 43 for they loved the glory of men,
more than the glory of God.

41 But Jesus cried, and said, lie that be-
lieveth in me, doth not believe in me, bu( in
him that sent me. 4S And he that seeth me,
seeth him that sent me. 4<lT a liuhl am some
into this world : that every one which 06-
lieveth in me, may not remain in the darkness,
,; And if any man hear my words, and keep

them not: I do not judge him; fori Came

clarificavi, et iterum clarificabo. Turba ergo, qua? 29
stabat, et audierat, dicebat tonitruum esse factum.
Alii dicebant : Angelus ei locutus est. Respondit 30
Jesus, et dixit: Non propter me haec vox venit, sed
propter vos. Nunc judicium est mundi : nunc princeps 3 1
hujus mundi ejicietur foras. Et ego si exaltatus fuero 32
a terra, omnia traham ad meipsum. (Hoc autcm dice- ^
bat, signifioans qua morte esset moriturus.) Respondit 34
ei turba: Xos audivimus ex lege, quia Christus manet
in aetemum : ct quomodo tu dicis, Oportet exaltari
Filium hominis? Quis est istc Filius hominis ? Dixit 35
ergo eis Jesus: Adhuc modicum, lumen in vobis est.
Ambulate dum lucem habetis, ut non vos tenebne
comprehendant: ct qui ambulat in tencbris, nescit quo
vadat. Dum lucem habetis, credite in lucem, ut filii 36
lucis sitis. Hoec locutus est Jesus : et abiit, et abscondit
se ab cis.

Cum autem tanta signa fecisset coram cis, non 37
credebant in cum: ut scrmo Isaias prophetrc implcrc- 38
tur, quern dixit: Domine, quis credidit auditui nostro?
et brachium Domini cui revelatum est? Propterea non 39
poterant credere, quia iterum dixit Isaias: Excoocavit 40
oculos corum, et induravit cor eorum, ut non videant
oculis, et non intelligent corde, et convertantur, ct
sancm cos. Hax dixit Isaias, quando vidit gloriam 41

pibus multi crcdiderunt in cum: sed propter Pharisaeoa
non confitebantur, ut c synagoga non ejicercntur.
Dilcxcrunt enim gloriam hominum magis, quam 43
gloriam Dei.

Jesus autcm clamavit, ct dixit:
non credit in me, sed in cum. qui
videt mo, videt cum, qui misit me
dum veni: ut omnis, qui credit in me, in tencbris non
rnaneat. Et si quis audieril verba mea, et non custo- 47

Qui credit in me, 44

49 Quia ego ex meipso non sum locutus, sed qui misit me
Pater, ipse mibi mandatum dedit quid dicam, et quid

50 loquar. Et scio quia mandatum ejus vita aeterna est.
Quas ergo ego loquor, sicut dixit mini Pater, sic
loquor.

13 Ante diem festum pascbre, sciens Jesus quia venit
bora ejus ut transeat ex boc mundo ad Patrem : cum
dilexisset suos, qui erant in mundo, in finem dilexit

2 eos. Et ccena facta, cum diabolus jam misisset in cor,

3 ut traderet eum Judas Simonis Iscariotas : sciens quia
omnia dedit ei Pater in manus, et quia a Deo exivit, et

4 ad Deum vadit: Surgit a ccena, et ponit vestimenta

5 sua : et cum accepisset linteum, praecinxit se. Deinde
mittit aquam in pelvim, et ccepit lavare pedes discipu-

6 lorum, et extergere linteo, quo erat praecinctus. Venit
ergo ad Simonem Petrum. Et dicit ei Petrus : Domine,

7 tu mibi lavas pedes? Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei:
Quod ego facio, tu nescis modo, scies autem postea.

8 Dicit ei Petrus: Xon lavabis mibi pedes in sternum.

-pondit ei Jesus: Si non lavcro te, non babcbis

9 partem mecum. Dicit ei Simon Petrus: Domine, non

10 tantum pedes meos, sed et manus, et caput. Dicit ei
Jesus: Qui lotus est, non indiget nisi ut pedes lavet,
Bed est mundus totus. Et vos mundi estis, sed non

1 1 omnes. Sciebat enim quisnam esset qui traderet eum :
propterea dixit: non estis mundi omnes.

12 rortqtmm ergo lavit pedes eorum, et accepit vesti-

my words, hath that judgeth him ; the word
that I have spoken, that shall judge him in
the last day. ^Because of myself I have
not spoken, but the Father that sent me, he
gave me commandment what I should say,
and what I should speak. 50 And I know
that his commandment is life everlasting.
The things therefore that I speak : as the
Father said to me, so do I speak.

And before the festival day of Pasche,
.Tesus knowing that his hour was come that
he should pass out of this world to his Father:
whereas he had loved his that were in the
world, unto the end he loved them. 2And
when supper was done, whereas the devil now
had put into the heart of Judas Iscariote, the
son of Simon, to betray him : 3 knowing that
the Father gave him all things into his hands,
and that he came from God, and goeth to
God: "^ lie riseth from supper, and layeth
aside his garments, and having taken a towel,
girded himself. 5 After that, he put water
into a bason, and began to wash the feet of
the disciples, and to wipe them with the
towel wherewith he was girded. GHecometh
therefore to Simon Peter. And Peter saith
to him, Lord, doest thou wash my feet?
'Jesus answered andsaid to him, That which

I do, thou knowest not now, hereafter thou
shalt know. 8 Peter saith to him, Thou shalt.
not wash my feet for ever. Jesus answered
him, If I wash thee not, thou shalt not have
part with me. ,JSimon Peter saitli to him,
Lord, not only my feet, but also hands, ana
head. l0 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed,
needeth not but to wasli his feet, but is clean
wholly. And you are clean, but not all.

II For he knew who he was that would betray
him, therefore he said, You are not clean all

'- Therefore, alter he had washed their feet,
and taken his garments, being set down,
again he said to them, Know you what 1 have
done to you? laYou call me, 1\1 aster, and
Lord: and you say well, fori am so. UI£
then I have washed your feet, Lord and
Mister, you also ought, to wash one another's
feet. "For I have given you an example,
that as 1 have done to you, so you do also.

\inin, amen I say to yon, a servant is not
greater than his lord, neither is an apostle
greater than he that sent him. ''"If you

ore looked one upon another, doubting of
whom lie spake. :3 There was therefore one
ol" his disciples leaning in the bosom of Jesus,
he whom Jesus loved. 24 Therefore Simon
I'eter beckoneth to him, and said to him,
Who is it of whom lie speaketh? ^Jle
therefore leaning upon the breast, of Jesus,
saith to him, Lord, wiio is he? *6 Jesus an-
swered : He it is to whom I shall reach the
dipped bread. And when he had dipped
the bread, he cave it to Judas Iscuriot,
Simon's son. ^And after the morsel, then
Satan entered into him. And Jesus saith to
him, That which thou doeet, do it quickly,
^liut no man knew of those that sat at table,
to what purpose he said this unto him. -9For
certain thought, because Judas had the
purse, that, Jesus had said to him, Buy those
things which are needful for us to the festival
day : or that he should give something to the
poor. 30IIe therefore having received the
morsel, incontinent went forth. And it was
night.

51 "When he therefore was gone forth, Jesus
said, Now the Son of man is glorifled, and
God is glorified in him. • If God be glorified
in him, God also will glorify him in himself,
and incontinent will he glorify him. :3 Little
children, yet a little while 1 am with you.
You shall seek me, and as I said to the Jews,
Whither I go, you cannot come : to you also
I say now. w A new commandment I give to
you, That you love one another : as I have
loved you, that you also love one another.
•I5 In this all men shall know that you are my
disciples, if you have love one to another.
86 Simon Peter saith to him. Lord, whither
goest thou ? Jesus answered, Whither 1 go,
thou canst not now follow me, but hereafter
thou shalt follow. ^ Peter snith to him,
Why cannot 1 follow thee now ? I will yield
my life for thee. M Jesus answered him, Thy
life wilt thou yield for me ? Amen, amen I
say to thee, the cock shall not crow, until
thou deny mo thrice.

Let not. your heart be troubled. You be-
lieve in God, believe in me also. 2In my
father's house there be many mansions. ]f
not, I would have told you : because 1 go to
prepare you a place. 3 And if 1 go, and pre-
pare you a place i 1 come again and w ill take
you to myself, that where 1 am, you also may
he. 'And whither 1 go you know, and the
way you know.

"•Thomas saith to him, Lord, we know not
whither thou goest: and how can we know
the way? 6 Jesus saith to him, I am the
way, and the verity, and the life. No man
cometh to the Father, but by me. ' It jrou
had Known me, my father also ofllti •
had known : and from henceforth you shall
know him, and you have seen him.

Father, and il sulllceth us. 'JftBUI saith to

discipuli, hacsitantcs de quo dicerct. Erat ergo recum- 23
bens unus ex discipulis ejus in sinu Jesu, quern diligebat
Jesus. Innuit ergo huic Simon Petrus, et dixit ei: 24
Quis est, de quo dicit? Itaque cum recubuisset ille 25
supra pectus Jesu, dicitei: Domine quis est? llespondit 26
Jesus: Ille est, cui ego intinctum panem porrexero. Et
cum intinxissct panem, dedit Judas Simonis Iscariotae.
Et post buccellam, introivit in cum Satanas. Et dixit 27
ei Jesus: Quod facis, fac citius. Hoc autem nemo 28
scivit discumbentium ad quid dixerit ei. Quidam 29
enim putabant, quia loculos habebat Judas, quod
dixisset ei Jesus: Erne ea, qua; opus sunt nobis ad
diem festum ; aut cgenis ut aliquid daret. Cum ergo 30
accepisset ille buccellam, exivit continue Erat autem
nox.

Cum ergo exisset, dixit Jesus: Nunc clarificatus est 31
filius hominis: et Deus clarificatus est in eo. Si Deus
clarificatus est in eo, et Deus clarilicabit cum in semet-
ipso: et continuo clarificabit eum. Filioli, adhuc

Judaeis, Quo ego vado, vos non potestis venire, et vobis
dico modo. Mandatum novum do vobis? Ut diligatis 34
invicem, sicut dilexi vos, ut et vos diligatis invicem.
In hoc cognoscent omnes quia discipuli mei estis, si 35
dilectioncm habueritis ad invicem. Dicit ei Simon 36
Petrus: Domine, quo vadis ? Respondit Jesus: Quo
ego vado, non potes me modo sequi: scqueris autem
postea. Dicit ei Petrus: Quare non possum te sequi 37
modo? animam meam pro te ponam. Respondit ei 38
Jesus: Animam tuam pro me pones? Amen, amen,
dico tibi: Non cantabit gallus, donee ter me neges.

Non turbetur cor vestrum. Creditis in Dcum, et in 14
me crcditc: in domo Patris mei mansiones rxraltse sunt: 2
si quo minus, dixisscm vobis: quia vado parare vobis
locum. Et si abiero, et praparavsro vobis locum: 3
itcrum venio, et accipiam vos ad mcipsum, ut ubi
sum ego, et vos sitis. Et quo ego vado scitis, et viam 4
scitis.

Dicit ei Thomas: Domine, nescimus quo vadis: et 5
quomodo possumus viam scire? Dicitei Jesas: Ego 6
sum via, et Veritas, et vita: nemo remit ad Patrem. nisi
per me. Si cognovissetis me, et Patrem meum utique 7
cognovissctis: et amodo cognoscetis eum, et vidistis
eum.

Dicit ei Philippus: Domine, ostende nobis Patrem, 8
et suflicit nobis. Dicit ei Jesus: Tanto tempore 9
vobiscum sum: et non cognovistis me? Philippe, qui
videt me, videt et Patrem. Quomodo tu dieis: Ostende

est, qui diligit me. Qui autem diligit me, diligetur a

22 Dicit ei Judas, non ille Iscariotes : Domine, quid
factum est, quia manifestaturus es nobis teipsum, et

23 non mundo? Piespondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Si quis
diligit me, sermonem meum servabit, et Pater mens

Shew us the father? 10Dost thou not be-
lieve that I am in the Father, and the Father
iume? The words that I speak to you, of
myself I speak not. But my father that
abideth in me, lie doeth the works. u Believe
you not, that I am in the Father, and the
Father in me ? Otherwise, for the works
themselves believe. n Amen, amen I say to
you, he that believeth in me, the works that
I do, he also shall do : and greater than these
shall he do, 13 because I go to the Father:
and whatsoever you shall ask in my name,
that will I do : that the Father may be glori-
fied in the Son. u If you ask me anything
in my name, that will I do. 15 If you love
me, keep my commandments. 16And I will
ask the father, and he will give you another
Paraclete, that he may abide with you for
ever, 17the Spirit of truth, whom the world
cannot receive, because it seeth him not,
neither knoweth him; but you know him:
because he shall abide with you, and shall be
in you. ls I will not leave you orphans : I
will come to you. 19Yet a little while: and
the world seeth me 110 more. But you see
me: because I live, and you shall live. 2UIn
that day you shall know that I am in my
father, and you in me, and I in you. 21He
that hath my commandments, and keepeth
them : he it is that lovetli me. And he that
loveth me, shall be loved of my father : and
I will love him, and will manifest myself to
him.

--Judas saith to him, not that Iscariote,
Lord, what is done, that thou wilt manifest
thyself to us, and not to the world? 3 Jesus
answered, and said to him, If any one love
me, he will keep my word, and my father
will love him, and we will come to him, and
will make abode with him. 21 He that loveth
me not, keepeth not my words. And tho
word which you have heard, is not mine :
but his that sent me, the Father's. _* These
things have I spoken to you abiding with
you. ^'But the Paraclete, the holy Ghost,
whom the Father will send in my name, be

you are clean for the word which I have
spoken to you. 4 Abide in me: and I in you.
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself,
unless it abide in the vine: so you neither,
unless you abide in me. 6 1 am the vine ; you
the branches: he that abideth in me, and I
in him, the same bearcth much fruit : for
without me you can do nothing. cIf any
abide not in me, he shall be cast forth as the
branch, and shall wither, and they shall
gather him up, and cast him into the fire, and
he burnetii. 7Ifyou abide in me, ana my
words abide in you : you shall ask what thing
soever you will, and it shall be done to you.
8 In this my lather is glorified: that you
bring very much fruit, and become my Dis-
ciples. 'J As my father hath loved me, f also
have loved you. Abide in my love. w If you
keep my precepts, you shall abide in my love :
us i also have kept my father's precepts, and
do abide in his love. "These things I have
spoken to you, that my joy may be in you,
and your joy may be filled. ^Thisismy
precept, that you love one another, as I have
loved you. Vi Greater love than this no man
hath, that a man yield his life for his friends.
14You are my friends, if you do the things
that I command you. 15 Now I call you not
servants: for the servant knoweth not what
his lord doeth. But you I have called
friends: because all things whatsoever I
heard of my father, I havenotified unto you.
]C You chose not me, but I chose you : and
have appointed you : that you go, and bring
fruit : and your fruit abide : that whatsoever
you ask the father in my name, he may give
it you. ,7 These things I command you, that
you love one another.

18 If the world hate you : know ye that it
hath hated me before you. ,9 If you had been
of the world, the world would love his own;
but because you are not of the world, but 1
have chosen you out of the world, therefore
the world hatoth you. *> Remember my word
that I said to you, The servant is not greater
than his master. If they have persecuted
me, you also will they persecute. If they
have kept my word, your's also will they
keep. a But all these things they will do to
you for my name sake: because they know
not him that sent me. --If 1 had not come,

a semetipso, nisi manserit in vite : sic nee vos, nisi in
me manseritis. Ego sum vitis, vos palmites: qui manet 5

me nihil potestis facere. Si quis in me non manserit : 6

verba mea in vobis manserint: quodcumque volueritis

incus, ut fructum plurimum afferatis, et efficiamini
mei discipuli. Sicut dilcxit me Pater, et ego dilcxi 9

Haec locutus sum vobis, ut gaudium meum in vobis sit, 1 1

Si mundus vos odit; scitote quia me priorem vobis 18

ego elegi vos de mundo, propterea odit vos mundus.

16 Haec locutus sum vobis, ut non scandalizemini.

2 Absque synagogis facient vos: sed venithora, ut omnis,
qui interticit vos, arbitretur obsequium se pnestare Deo.

3 Et haec facient vobis, quia non noverunt Patrem, neque

vobis ab initio non dixi, quia vobiscum eram. Et nunc

dico vobis: expedit vobis ut ego vadam: si enim non
abiero, Paracletus non veniet ad vos: si autem abiero,

8 mittam eum ad vos. Et cum venerit ille, arguet
mundum de peccato, et de justitia, et de judicio.

9 De peccato quidera : quia non crediderunt in me.

10 De justitia vero: quia ad Patrem vado; et jam non

1 1 videbitis me. De judicio autem: quia princeps hujus

12 mundi jam judicatus est. Adhuc multa habeo vobis

13 dicere: sed non potestis portare modo. Cum autem
venerit ille Spiritus veritatis, docebit vos omnem veri-
tatem : non enim loquetur a semetipso : sed quaecumquc

14 Ille me clarificabit: quia de meo accipiet, et annunciabit

Propterea dixi: quia de meo accipiet, et annunciabit

Father, be shall give testimony of me : 2'and
you shaU give testimony, because you are
with me from the beginning.

These things have I spoken to you, that
you be not scandalized. 2 Out of the syna-
gogues they will cast you : but the hour
eometh, that every one which killeth you,
shall think that he doeth service to God.
3 And these things they will do to you: be-
cause they have not known the Father, nor
me. 4But these things I have spoken to
you: that when the hour shall come, you
may remember them, that I told you. 5 But
I told you not these things from the be-
ginning, because I was with you. And now

I go to him that sent me, and none of you
asketh me, Whither goest thou? 6But be-
cause I have spoken these things to you,
sorrow hath filled your heart. 7 But I tell
you the truth : it is expedient for you that I
go. For if I go not, the Paraclete shall not
come to you : but if I go, I will send liim to
you. 8 And when he is come, he shall argue
the world of sin, and of justice, and of judg-
ment. 9 Of sin : because they believe not in
me. 10But of justice: because I go to the
Father: and now you shall not see me;

II and of judgment: because the prince of
this world is now judged. 12 Yet many things
I have to say to you, but you cannot bear
them now. uBut when he, the Spirit of
truth Cometh, he shall teach you all truth ;
for he shall not speak of himself: but what
things soever he shall hear, he shall speak ;
and the things that are to come he shall shew
you. M He shall glorify me : because he shall
receive of mine, and shall shew to you.
15 All tilings whatsoever the Father hath, be
mine. Therefore I said, that he shall receive
of mine, and shall shew to you. 16 A little
while, and now you shall not see me : and
again a little while, and you shall see me:
because I go to the Father.

17 Some therefore of his disciples said ono
to another, What is this that he saith to us :
A little while, and you shall not see me : and
again a little while, and you shall sec me, and.
because I go to the lather? ls Tltcv •-niil
therefore, What is this that he saith, A little
while? we know not what ho speaketb.
19 And Jesus knew, that they would ask bin :
and he eaid to them, Of this you do i|iic.-t ion
among yourselves, because 1 said to you, A
little while, and ypu shall not see me .- and
again a little while, and you ihall tee me.
•Amen, amen I sai to you, that you ihall weep,

21 eis, qui credituri sunt per verbum eorum in me: ut
omnes unum sint, sicut tu Pater in me, et ego in te, ut
et ipsi in nobis unum sint : ut credat mundus, quia tu

22 me misisti. Et ego claritatem, quam dedisti mihi,

23 dedi eis: ut sint unum, sicut et nos unum sumus. Ego
in eis, et tu in me: ut sint consummati in unum: et
cognoscat mundus quia tu me misisti, et dilexisti eos,

24 sicut et me dilexisti. Pater, quos dedisti mihi, volo
ut ubi sum ego, et illi sint mecum, ut videant claritatem
meam, quam dedisti mihi, quia dilexisti me ante con-

25 stitutionem mundi. Pater juste, mundus te non cogno-
vit, ego autem te cognovi, et hi cognoverunt, quia

26 tu me misisti. Et notum feci eis nomen tuum, et
notum faciam: ut dilectio, qua dilexisti me, in ipsis
sit, et ego in ipsis.

18 Haec cum dixisset Jesus, egressus est cum discipulis
suis trans torrentem Cedron, ubi erat hortus, in quern

2 introivit ipse, et discipuli ejus. Sciebat autem et Judas,
qui tradebat eum, locum: quia frequenter Jesus con-

3 vcnerat illuc cum discipulis suis. Judas ergo cum
accepisset cohortem, et a Pontificibus, et Pharisaus
ministros, venit illuc cum latcrnis, et facibus, et armis.

4 Jesus itaque sciens omnia, quaj ventura erant super

world : as I also am not of the world. 13 1
pray not that thou take them away out of
the world, but that thou preserve them from
evil. lsOf the world they are not: as I also
am not of the world. ''Sanctify them in
truth. Thy word is truth. 18 As thou didst
send me into the world, I also have sent them
into the world. u And for them I do sanctify
myself: that they also may be sanctified in
truth. -u And not for them only do I pray,
but for them also that by their word shall
believe in me : 31 that they all may be one, as
thou (Father) in me, and I in thee, that they
also in us may be one : that the world may
believe that thou hast sent me. -2And the
glory that thou hast given me, have I given
to them : that they may be one, as we also
are one. s I in them, and thou in me : that
they may be consummate in one : and the
world may know that thou hast sent me, and
hnst loved them, as me also thou hast loved.
"Father, whom thou hast given me, I will,
that where I am, they also may be with me :
that they may see my glory which thou hast
given me, because thou hast loved me before
the creation of the world. 25Just Father,
the world hath not known thee, but I have
known thee : and these have known that
thou didst send me. -6And I have notified
thy name to them, and will notify it: that
the love wherewith thou hast loved me may
be in them, and I in them.

When Jesus had said these things, he went
forth with his disciples beyond the Torrent-
C'edron, where was a garden, into the which
he entered and his Disciples. 2And Judas
also, that betrayed him, knew the place:
because Jesus had often resorted thither
together with his Disciples. 3 Judas therefore
having received the band of men, and of the
chief Priests and the Pharisees, ministers,
cometh thither with lanterns, and torches,
and weapons. * Jesus therefore knowing all
tilings that should come upon him, went
forth, and said to them, Whom seek ye?
6 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus saith to them. I ant he, And Judas
also that betrayed him, stood with them.
6 As soon therefore as lie said to them, 1 am
lie: they went hack ward, and fell tot In •ground.

liim to Annas first, for lie was father-in-law
to Caiphas, who was the high priest of that
year. 14And Caiphas was he that had given
the counsel to the Jews, That it is expedient
that one man die for the people.

15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and
another disciple. And that Disciple was
known to the high priest, and went in with
Jesus into the court of the high priest. 10But
Peter stood at the door without. The other
disciple therefore that was known to the high
Priest, went forth, and spake to the portress,
and brought in Peter. 17 The wench therefore
that was portress, saith to Peter, Art not
thou also of this man's disciples? He saith
toher,! am not. lsAnd t he servants and
ministers stood at a fire of coals, because it
was cold, and warmed themselves. And
with them was Peter also standing, and
warming himself.

19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus of
his disciples, and of his doctrine. ^ Jesus
answered him, I have openly spoken to the
world: I have always taught in the syna-
gogue, and in the temple whither all the
Jews resort together: and in secret I have
spoken nothing. aWhy askest thou me?
ask them that have heard what J have
spoken unto them : behold, they know what
tilings 1 have said. ° When he had said
these things, one of the ministers standing
by, gave Jesus a blow, saying, Answerest
thou the high priest so? a Jesus answered
him, Jf 1 have spoken ill, give testimony of
evil: but if well, why strikest thou me?

24 And Annas sent him bound to Caiphas
the high priest. ^And Simon Peter was
standing, and warming himself. They said
therefore to him. Art not thou also of his
disciples? He denied and said: 1 an not.
26 One of the servants of the high priest
saith to him, his cousin whose ear Peter
did cut off, J)id not 1 see thee in the garden
with him ? -' Again therefore Peter denied :
and forthwith the cock crew.

-8They therefore bring Jesus from Caiphas
into the Palace. And it was morning: and
they went not into the Palace, that they
might not be contaminated, but that they
might eat the Puselie. "Pilate therefore
went forth to them without, and said. What
accusation bring you against this man?
-°They answered and said to him, If he were
not a malefactor, we would not have delivered
him up to thee. B1 Pilate therefore said to
them, Take him you, and aooording to your
law judge him. The Jews therefore said to
him, It is not lawful for us to kill any man.
:i- That the word of Jesus might be fulfilled
whiehhe said, signifying what deatli he should
die.

33 Pilate therefore went into the Palace

again, and called Jesus, and said to him,
Art thou the king of the .lews- "Jeans
answered, Bayest thou this of thyself, or
have others told it thee of me? B Pilate
answered, Why, am I a Jew? Thy nation,
and the chief priests have delivered thee up

ad Annam primum, erat enira socer Caiphae, qui erat
pontifexanni illius. Erat autem Caiphas, qui consilium 14
dederat Judacis: Quia expedit, unum homincm mori
pro populo.

Sequebatur autcm Jesum Simon Petrus, et alius 15
discipulus. Discipulus autcm ille erat notus pontifici,
et introivit cum Jesu in atrium pontificis. Petrus 16
autem stabat ad ostium foris. Exivit ergo discipulus
alius, qui erat notus pontifici, et dixit ostiaria:, et
introduxit Petrum. Dicit ergo Pctro ancilla ostiaria: 17
Numquid et tu ex discipulis cs hominis istius? Dicit
ille: Non sum. Stabant autem servi et ministii ad 18
prunas, quia frigus erat, et calefaciebant se : erat autem
cum eis et Petrus starts, et calefaciens se.

Pontifex ergo interrogavit .Jesum de discipulis suis, 19
et de doctrina ejus. Kespondit ei Jesus: Ego palam 20
locutus sum mundo: ego semper docui in synagoga, et
in tcmplo, quo omnes Judaji conveniunt: et in occulto
locutus sum nihil. Quid me interrogas? interroga eos, 21
qui audierunt quid locutus sim ipsis: ecce hi sciunt
qua) dixerim ego. Hrec autem cum dixisset, unus 22
assistens ministrorum dedit alapam Jcsu, dicens: Sic
respondes pontifici? Rcspondit ei Jesus: Si male 23
locutus sum, testimonium perhibe de malo: si autem
bene, quid me caddis?

Et misit cum Annas ligatum ad Caipham pontificem. 24
Erat autem Simon Petrus stans, et calefaciens se. 25
Dixerunt ergo ei : Numquid et tu ex discipulis ejus es?
Negavit ille, et dixit: Non sum. Dicit ei unus ex 26
servis pontificis, cognatus ejus, cujus abscidit Petrus
auriculam: Nonne ego te vidi in horto cum illo?
Iterum ergo negavit Petrus: et statim gallus can taut. -7

Adducunt ergo Jesum a Caipha in prrctorium. Erat 28
autem mane: et ipsi non introierunt in pnvtorium, ut
non contaminarentur, sed ut manducarenl Pasoha.
Exivit ergo Pilatus ad cos foras, et dixit: Quam 29
aecusationein allirtis adversus homincm hunc? Re- 30
spondcrunt, et dixerunt ei: Si non esset hie malefactor,
non tibi tradidissemus cum. Dixit ergo eis Pilatus: 31
Accipite cum vos, et secundum legem vestram judicate
cum. Dixerunt ergo ei Judu-i : Nobis non licet inter-
ficere quemquam. Ut sermo Jcsu implerctur, quern 32
dixit, significans qua morte eaaet moriturus.

Introivit ergo iterum in pnvtorium Pilatus, et vocavit 33
Jesum, et dixit ci -. Tu es vex Jmhvorum? Kespondit 34
JeBUS: A temetipSO hoc dicis.an alii dixerunt tibi de me?
Respondit Pilatus: Numquid ego Judreus sum? Gens 35
tua, et pontifices tradiderunt te mihi: quid fecisti?

153

John XVIII. 36— XIX. 15.

36 Respondit Jesus: Regnum rneuni non est de hoc
mundo: si ex hoc mundo esset regnum meum, ministri
mei utique decertarent ut non traderer Judreis: nunc

37 autem regnum meum non est hinc. Dixit itaque ei
Pilatus: Ergo rex es tu? Respondit Jesus: Tu dicis
quia rex sum ego. Ego in hoc natus sum, et ad hoc
veni in mundimi, ut testimonium perhibeam veritati :

38 omnis, qui est ex veritate, audit vocem meam. Dicit
ei Pilatus: Quid est Veritas?

Et cum hoc dixisset, iterum exivit ad Judaeos, et

39 dicit eis: Ego nullam invenio in eo causam. Est
autem consuetudo vobis ut unum dimittam vobis in
Pascha : vultis ergo dimittam vobis regem Juda3orum ?

40 Clamaverunt ergo rursum omnes, dicentes: Non hunc,
sed Barabbam. Erat autem Barabbas latro.

19 Tunc ergo apprehendit Pilatus Jesum, et flagellavit.

2 Et milites plectentes coronam de spinis, imposuerunt
capiti ejus: et veste purpurea circumdederunt eura.

3 Et veniebant ad eum, et dicebant: Ave, rex Judaeorum :

4 et dabant ei alapas. Exivit ergo iterum Pilatus foras,
et dicit eis: Ecce adduco vobis eum foras, ut cognos-

5 catis quia nullam invenio in eo causam. (Exivit ergo
■ I' -us portans coronam spineam, et purpureum vesti-

6 mentum :) Et dicit eis : Ecce homo. Cum ergo vidissent
eum Ponti6ces et ministri, clamabant, dicentes: Cruci-
fige, crucifige eum. Dicit eis Pilatus: Accipite eum
vos, et crucifigite : ego enim non invenio in eo causam.

7 Responderunt ei Judrci: Nos legem habemus, et
secundum legem debet mori, quia filium Dei se fecit.

8 Cum ergo audisset Pilatus hunc sermonem, magis

9 timuit. Et ingressus est praetorium iterum : et dixit
ad Jesum: Undo et tu? Jesus autem rcsponsum non

iodeditei. Dicit ergo ei Pilatus: Mihi non loqueris?
nescis quia potestatem habeo crucifigere te, et potes-

11 tatern dimittere te? Respondit Jesus: Xon haberes

iper. Propterea qui me tradidit tibi, majus pec-
um hai.

to rne : what hast thou done? x Jesus
answered. My kingdom is not of this world ;
if my kingdom were of this world, my
ministers verily would strive that I should
not be delivered to the Jews ; but now my
kingdom is not from hence. a7 Pilate there-
fore said to him, Art thou a king then?
Jesus answered, Thou sayest, that I am a
king. For this was I born, and for this
came I into the world : that I should give
testimony to the truth. Every one that is
of the truth, heareth my voice. ^ Pilate
saith to him, What is truth ?

And when he had said this, he went forth
again to the Jews, and saith to them, 1 find
no cause in him. * But you have a custom
that I should release one to you in the
Pasche : will you therefore that I release
unto you the king of the Jews ? 4n Tliey all
therefore cried again, saying, Not him, but
Barabbas. And Barabbas was a thief.

Then therefore Pilate took Jesus, and
scourged him. 2And the soldiers platting
a crown of thorns, put it upon his head :
and they put about him a purple garment.
3And they came to him, and said, Hail, king
of the Jews : and they gave him blows.
4 Pilate went forth again, and saith to them.
Behold I bring him forth unto you, that
you may know that I find no cause in him.
5Je8US therefore went forth carrying t ho
crown of thorns, and the purple vestment.
And he saith to them, Lo the man. 6When
the chief priests therefore and the ministers
had seen him, they cried, saying, Crucify,
crucify him. Pilate saith to tliem, Take
him you, and crucify him ; for I find no cause
in him. 7 The Jews answered him, We have
a Law : and according to the Law he ought
to die, because he hath made himself the
son of God.

8 When Pilate therefore had heard this
faying, he feared more. 9And he entered
into the Palace again : and he saith to Jesus,
Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no
answer. 10 Pilate therefore saith to him,
Speakest thou not to me? knowestthou not
that I have power to crucify thee, and 1
have power to release thee? u Jesus an-
swered, Thou shouldest not have any power
anainst me, unless it were given thee from
above. Therefore he that hath betrayed mo
to thee hath the greater sin.

38 Post haec auteni rogavit Pilatum Joseph ab Arirna-
thaea, (eo quod esset discipulus Jesu, occultus auteni
propter metum Judaeorum) ut tolleret corpus Jesu.
Et permisit Pilatus. Yenit ergo, et tulit corpus Jesu.

39 Venit autem et Xicodernus, qui venerat ad Jesum
nocte primum, ferens mixturam myrrhaj, et aloes, quasi

40 libras centum. Acceperunt ergo corpus Jesu, et liga-
verunt illud linteis cum aromatibus, sicut mos est

41 Judseis sepelire. Erat autem in loco, ubi crucifixus
est, liortus: et in liorto monumentum novum, in quo

42 nondum quisquam positus erat. Ibi ergo propter
Parasceven Judaeorum, quia juxta erat monumentum,
posuerunt Jesum.

20 Una autem sabbati, Maria Magdalene venit mane,
cum adhuc tenebra? essent, ad monumentum : et vidit

venit ad Simonem Petrum, et ad alium discipulum,
quern amabat Jesus, et dicit illis: Tulerunt Dominum
de monumento, et nescimus ubi posuerunt eum.

3 Exiit ergo Petrus, et ille alius discipulus, et venerunt

alius discipulus praecucurrit citius Petro, et venit

38 And after these things Joseph of Arirua-
tlioea (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but
secret for fear of the Jews) desired Pilate
that lie might take away the body of Jesus.
And Pilate permitted. He came therefore,
and took away the body of Jesus. 3JNico-
demus also came, he that at the first came to
Jesus by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh
and aloes, about an hundred pounds. *° They
took therefore the body of Jesus, and bound
it in linen cloths with the spices, as the man-
ner is with the Jews to bury. n And there
was in the place where he was crucified, a
garden : and in the garden a new monument,
wherein no man yet had been laid. 4- There
therefore because of the Parasceve of the Jews,
they laid Jesus, because the monument was
hard by.

And the first of the Sabbath, Marie Mag-
dalene cometh early, when it was yet dark,
unto the monument : and she saw the stone
taken away from the monument. 2 She ran
therefore and cometh to Simon Peter, and
tothe other disciple whom Jesus loved, and
saith to them, They have taken our Lord out
of the monument, and we know not where
they have laid him.

3 Peter therefore went forth and that other
disciple, and they came to the monument.
4 And both ran together, and that other dis-
ciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the
monument. 5 And when he had stooped
down, he saw the linen clothes lying: but
yet he went not in. 6 Simon Peter therefore
cometh, following him, and went into the
monument, and saw the linen clothes lying,
7 and t lie napkin that had been upon his
head, not lying with the linen clothes, but
apart, wrapped up into one place. 8Then
therefore went in that other disciple also
which came first to the monument : and he
saw, and believed. 9For as yet they knew
not the scripture, that he should rise again
from the dead. '"The disciples therefore
departed again to themselves.

11 But Marie stood at the monument with-
out, weeping. Therefore as slir u;im weeping;
she stooped down, and looked into the
monument: '-and ahe aaw two Angels in
white, sit tint', one at the head, and one a1 the
feet, when- the body of Jeaua had been bud,
"They lay to her, Woman, why weepeat
thou? She aaith to them, Becauae they have

them, I ascend to my Father and your Ear
t her, my God and your God. 18 Marie Mag-
dalene cometh and telleth the disciples. That
I have seen our Lord, and thus he said unto
me.

13 Therefore when it was' late that day, the
first of the Sabbaths, and the doors were
shut, where the disciples were gathered to-
gether for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and
Btood in the midst, and saith to them, Peace
be to you. 2CI And when he had said this, he
shewed them his hands and side. The dis-
ciples therefore were glad when they saw our
Lord. sl He said therefore to them again,
Peace be to you. As my Father hath sent
me, I also do send you. 2J When he had said
this, he breathed upon them: and he saith
to them, ReceiveyetlieHoly Ghost: ^WnosE

SINS YOU S1IALL PORGIVK, THEY ARE FOR-
GIVEN THEM; AND WHOSE YOU SHALL
RETAIN, THEY ARE RETAINED. -4 But Thomas

one of the Twelve, who is called Didymus,
was not with them when Jesus came. -5 The
other disciples therefore said to him, We
have seen our Lord. But he said to them,
Unless I see in his hands the print of the
nails, and put my finger into the place of the
nails, and put my hand into his side : I will
not believe.

-6 And after eight days, again his disciples
were within : and Thomas with them. Jesus
cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in
the midst, and said, Peace be to you. -' Then
he saith to Thomas, Put in thy finger hither,
and see my hands, and bring hither thy hand,
and put. it into my side: and be not incre-
dulous but faithful. ^Thomas answered and
said to him, My Lord, and my God. 29 Jesus
saith to him. Because thou hast seen mc,
Thomas, thou hast believed : blessed are they
that have not seen, and have believed.

30 Many other signs also did Jesus in the
sight of his disciples, which are not written
in this book. •" And these are written, that
you may believe that Jesus is Christ the son
of God : and that believing, you may have
life in his name.

After Jesus manifested himself again at
the sea of Tiberias. And he manifested thus :

2 There were together Simon Peter and Tho-
mas who is called Didymus. and Nathanael
which was of Cana in Galilee, and the sons
of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

3 Simon Peter saith to them, I go to fish.
They say to him. We also come with thee.
And they went forth and got up into the
boat : and that night they took nothing.
4But when morning was now conic, Jesui
stood on the shore: yet the disciples knew
not that it was Jesus. 6 Jesus therefore
saith to them. Children, have you any incut P
They answered him, No. 6 He saith to them.
Cast the net on the right side of the boat:
and you shall find. They therefore did cast
it: and now they were not able to draw it

for the multitude of fishes. '"That disciple
therefore whom Jesus loved, saith to Peter,

Ascendo ad Patrem meum, ct Patrem vestrum, Deiim
mourn, et Deum vestrum. Vcnit Maria Magdalene 1 8
annuncians discipulis: Quia vidi Dominum, et haec
dixit mihi.

Cum ergo sero esset die illo, una sabbatorum, ct 19
fores essent clausas, ubi erant discipuli congregati
propter metum Judaeorum, venit Jesus, et stetit in
medio, et dixit eis: Pax vobis. Et cum hoc dixisset, 20
ostendit eis manus ct latus. Gavisi sunt ergo discipuli,
viso Domino. Dixit ergo eis iterum: Pax vobis: sicut 21
misit mc Pater, et ego mitto vos. Haec cum dixisset, 22
insufnavit: et dixit eis: Accipite Spiritum sanctum:
quorum remiseritis peccata, remittuntur eis; et quorum 23
retinueritis, retenta sunt. Thomas autcm unus ex 24
duodecim, qui dicitur Didymus, non erat cum eis,
quando venit Jesus. Dixerunt ergo ei alii discipuli:
Vidimus Dominum. Ille autcm dixit eis: Nisi videro
in manibus ejus fixuram clavorum, et mittam digitum
meum in locum clavorum, ct mittam manum meam in
latus ejus, non credam.

Et post dies octo, iterum erant discipuli ejus intus:
ct Thomas cum eis. Venit Jesus januis clausis, ct
stetit in medio, et dixit: Pax vobis. Deinde elicit 27
Thomas: Infer digitum tuum hue, et vide manus raeas,
ct alFer manum tuam, et mittc in latus meum: et noli
esse incredulus, sed fidelis. Respondit Thomas, et 28
dixit ei: Dominus meus, ct Deus meus. Dixit ei 29
Jesus: Quia vidisti mc, Thoma, credidisti: beati, qui
non vidcrunt, et crediderunt.

Multa quidem, et alia signa fecit Jesus in conspectu
discipulorum suorum, qua? non sunt scripta in libro
hoc. Haec autcm scripta sunt ut credatis, quia Jesus 31
est Christus Filius Dei: et ut credentes vitam habeatis
in nomine ejus.

Postea manifestavit se iterum Jesus discipulis ad 21
mare Tiberiadis. Manifestavit autcm sic: erant simul 2
Simon Pctrus, ct Thomas, qui dicitur Didymus, ct
Nathanael, qui erat a Cana (ialilaw, et filii Zebedaei, et

non tamen cognovcrunt discipuli quia Jesus est. Dixit 5
ergo eis Jesus: Pueri, numquid pulmentarium habetis?
Responderunt ei: Non. Dicit eis: Mittitc in dexteram 6
navigii rete, et uvrenietis. Miserunt ergo, et jam non
valebant illud trahere prse multitudine piscium. Dixit ~
ergo discipulus ille, quern diligebat Jesus, Petro :

John XXI. 8—25.

Dominus est. Simon Petrus cum audisset quia
Dominus est, tunica succinxit se (erat enim nudus) et

8 misit se in mare. Alii autem discipuli navigio vene-
runt, (non enim longe erant a terra, scd quasi cubitis

9 ducentis) trahentes rete piscium. Ut ergo descenderunt
in terram, viderunt prunas positas, et piscem super-

10 positum, et panem. Dicit eis Jesus: Afferte de pisci-

1 1 bus, quos prendidistis nunc. Ascendit Simon Petrus,
et traxit rete in terram, plenum magnis piscibus centum
quinquaginta tribus. Et cum tanti essent, non est

1 2 scissum rete. Dicit bis Jesus : Venite. prandete. Et
nemo audebat discumbentium interrogare eum : Tu

13 quis es? scientes, quia Dominus est. Et venit Jesus,

14 et accipit panem, et dat eis, et piscem similiter. Hoc
jam tertio manifestatus est Jesus discipulis suis cum
resurrexisset a mortuis.

15 Cum ergo prandissent, dicit Simoni Petrus Jesus:
Simon Joannis diligis me plus his? Dicit ei: Etiam
Domine, tu scis quia amo te. Dicit ei : Pasce agnos

l6meos. Dicit ei iterum: Simon Joannis, diligis me?
Ait illi: Etiam, Domine, tu scis quia amo te. Dicit

17 ei: Pasce agnos meos. Dicit ei tertio: Simon Joannis,
amas me? Contristatus est Petrus, quia dixit ei tertio,
Amas me ? et dixit ei: Domine, tu omnia nosti: tu

18 scis quia amo te. Dixit ei: Pasce oves meas. Amen,
amen, dico tibi: cum esses junior, cingebas te, et am-
bulabas ubi volebas: cum autem senucris, extendes
inanus tuas, et alius te cinget, et ducet quo tu non vis.

19 Hoc autem dixit significans qua morte clarificaturus

diligebat Jesus, sequcntem, qui et recubuit in cocna

ItisourLord. Simon Peter when liehad heard
that it is our Lord : girded his coat unto him
(for he was naked), and cast himself into the
sea. 8But the other disciples came in the
boat (for they were not far from the land,
but as it were two hundred cubits) drawing
the net of fishes. 9 Therefore after they came
down to land, they saw hot coals lying, and
fish laid thereon, and bread. lu Jesus saith
to them, Bring hither of the fishes that you
took now. u Simon Peter went up, and drew
the net to the land, full of great fishes, an
hundred and fifty three. And although they
were so many, the net was not broken.

12 Jesus saith to them, Come, dine. And
none of them that sat at meat durst ask him,
Who art thou? knowing that it is our Lord.

13 And Jesus cometh and taketh the bread
and giveth them, and the fish in like manner.

14 This now the third time Jesus was mani-
fested to his disciples, after he was risen from
the dead.

15 Therefore when they had dined, Jesus
saith to Simon Peter, Simon of John, lovest
thou me more than these? He saith to him,
Yea Lord : thou knowest that I love thee.
He saith to him, Peed mi iambs. 16He
saith to him again, Simon of John, lovest
thou me ? He saith to him, Yea Lord, thou
knowest that I love thee. He saith to him,
Feed my lambs. 17He saith to him the
third time, Simon of John, lovest thou me?
Peter was stricken sad, because he said unto
him the third time, Lovest thou me? And
he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all tilings :
thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to
him. Feed my sheep. lsAmen, amen I say
to thee, when thou wast younger, thou didst
gird thyself, and didst walk where thou
wouldest : but when thou shalt be old, thou
shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another
shall gird thee, and lead thee whither thou
wilt not. 19And this he said, signifying by
what death lie should glorify God. And
when he had said this, ho saith to him,
Follow me. w Peter turning, saw that disciple
whom Jesus loved, following, who also leaned
at the supper upon his breast, and siiid, Lord,
who is he that shall betray thee? J'llim
therefore when Peter had seen, he saith to
Jesus, Lord, and this man whal P "Jesus
saith to him, So I will have him to remain
till I come, what to thee? follow thou inc.'
3 This saying therefore went abroad among
the brethren, that that disciple dielh not.
\ ad Jesus did not say to him, he dieth not :
but, 80 1 will have him to remain till I doom,
what tot lire? '-''This is that disciple which

giveth testimony of these things, and hath
wiiiti 11 these thingsi and we know that Ins
testimony is true.

Bui there ,ire many other things also
which Jesui did) whioh if they were » ritten

19 diffusa sunt omnia viscere ejus. Et notum factum est

Acts I. 17—11. 13.

D;ivid concerning Judas, who was the cap-
tain of them that apprehended Jesus : 17who
was numbered among us, and obtained the
lot of this ministry. 13And he indeed hath
possessed a field of the reward of iniquity,
and being hanged he burst in the midst, ami
all hi9 bowels gushed out. 19And it was
made notorious to all the inhabitants of
Jerusalem : so that the same field was called
in their tongue, Hacel-dema, that is to say,
the field of blood. 2° For it is written in the
book of Psalms, Be their habitation made
desert, and be there none to dwell in it. And
his Bishopric let another take. sl Therefore,
of these men that have assembled with us,
all the time that our Lord Jesus went in and
went out among us, — beginning from the
baptism of John until the day wherein lie
was assumpted from us, there must one of
these be made a witness with us of his
resurrection.

-3And they appointed two, Joseph, who
was called Barsabas, who was surnamed
Justus: and Mathias. '^And praying they
said, Thou Lord that knowest the hearts of
all men, shew of these two, one, whom thou
hast chosen, ^to take the place of this
ministry and Apostleship, from the which
Judas hath prevaricated that he might go to
his own place. '-cAnd they gave them lots,
and the lot fell upon Mathias ; and he was
numbered with the eleven Apostles.

And when the days of Pentecost were ac-
complished, they were all together in one
place: -and suddenly there was made a sound
from heaven, as of a vehement wind coming,
and it filled the whole house where they
were sitting. 3And there appeared to them
parted tongues as it were of fire, and it sat
upon every one of them : 4and they were
all replenished with the Holy Ghost, and
they began to sneak with divers tongues,
aco irding as the Holy Ghost gave them to
speak.

•And there were dwelling at Jerusalem
Jew-, devout men of every nation that U un-
der heaven. c And when this voice was made,
the multitude came together, and was a--
tonied in mind, beoauae every man heard

14 But Peter standing with the Eleven,
lifted up His voice, anil spake to them, ^ •
men, Jews, and all you that dwell in Jerusa-
lem, be this known to you, and with your
ears receive my words. 15 For these are not
drunk, as you suppose, whereas it is the
third hour of the day: "but this is it that
was said by the Prophet Joel, '7 And it shall
be, in the last days, (saith our Lord) of my
Spirit I will pour out upon all Jlesh i and
your sons and your daughters shall pro-
phesy, and your young men shall see visions,
and pour ancients shall dream dreams.
13And upon, my servants truly, and upon my
handmaids will I pour out, in those days, of
my Spirit, and they shall prophesy: K and
I will give wonders in the heaven above, and
signs in the earth beneath. Hood, and fire,
and vapour of smoke. w The sun shall be
turned into darkness, and the moon into
blood, before the great and manifest day of
our Lord doth come. '2l And it shall be,
every one whosoever calleth upon the name
of our Lord, shall be saved.

-Ye men of Israel hear these words, Jesus
of Nazareth a man approved of God among
you, by miracles and wonders and signs
which God did by him in the midst of you,
as you know : '-'3 this same, by the determinate
counsel and prescience of God being delivered,
you by the bauds of wicked men have cru-
cified and slain. " Whom God hath raised
up, loosing the sorrows of hell, according as
it was impossible that he should be holden
of it. -'For David saith concerning him,
/ foresaw the Lord in my sight always:
because he is at my right hand that I be not
moved. xJFor this, my heart hath been glad,
and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my
flesh also shall rest in hope. '2< Because thou
wilt not leave my soul in hell, nor give thy
Holy one to see corruption. 2H Thou hast
'made known to me the ways of life: thou
shall make me full of joyful ness with thy
face. sYe men, brethren, let me boldly
speak to you of the Patriarch David: that
he died, and was buried: and his sepulchre
is with us until this present day. 3I Whereas
therefore he was a Prophet, and knew that
by an oath God had sworn to him that of
the fruit of his loins there should sit upon
his seat: 3I foreseeing he spake of the resur-
rection of Christ, for neither was he left in
hell, neither did his tlesh see corruption.
;i- This Jesus hath God raised again, whereof
all we are witnesses.

■B Being exalted therefore by the right hand
of God, and having received of his lather the
promise of the holy Ghost, he hath poured
out this whom you see and near. ;" lor David
ascended not into heaven: but he saith, Our
Lord hath said to my Lord, sit on my right

hand, * until I make thine enemies the foot'
ttool of thy feet. ^"Therefore let all the house
of Israel know most certainly that God hath
made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus
whom you have crucified.

Stans autem Petrus cum undecim levavit vocem 14
suam, ct locutus est cis: Viri Judau, et qui habitatis
Jerusalem universi, hoc vobis notum sit, et auribus
percipite verba mea. Xon enim, sicut vos aestimatis, 15
hi cbrii sunt, cum sit hora diei tertia: sed hoc est, quod 16
dictum est per prophetam Joel: et erit in novissimis 17
diebus (dicit Dominus) effundam de Spiritu meo super
omnem carnem: et prophetabunt filii vestri, et Bliss
vestras, et juvenes vestri visiones videbunt, et seniores
vestri somnia somniabunt. Et quidem super servos 18
meos, et super ancillas meas in diebus illis cfFundam
de Spiritu meo, et prophetabunt; et dabo prodigia in 19
ccelo sursum, et signa in terra deorsum, sanguinem, ct
ignem, et vaporem fumi: sol convertetur in tencbras, 20
et luna in sanguinem, antequam veniat dies Domini
magnus et manifestus. Et erit, omnis, quicumque2i
invocaverit nomen Domini, salvus erit.

Viri Israelite, audite verba h&c: Jesum Xazarenum, 22
virum approbatum a Deo in vobis, virtutibus, et pro-
digiis, et signis, quae fecit Deus per ilium in medio
vestri, sicut et vos scitis: hunc definito consilio, et 23
prascientia Dei traditum, per manus iniquorum
aflligentes interemistis: quern Deus suscitavit, solutis 24
doloribus inferni, juxta quod impossibile erat teneri
ilium ab eo. David enim dicit in cum: Providebam 25
Dominum in conspectu meo semper: quoniam a dextris
est mihi ne commovear. Propter hoc lsetatum est cor 26
nicum, et cxultavit lingua mea, insuper et caro mea
requiescet in spe: quoniam non derelinqucs animam 27
meam in inferno, nee dabis Sanctum ttium videre
corruptionem. Notas mihi fecisti vias vitte: et reple- 28
bis me jucunditate cum facie tua. Viri iiatrcs, liceat 29
audenter dicere ad vos de patriarcha David, quoniam de-
functus est, et sepultus: et sepulchrum ejus est apud nos
usque in hodiernum diem. Prophets igitur cum esset, 30
et scirct quia jurejurando jurasset illi Deus de fructu
lumbi ejus sedere super sedem ejus: providens locutus 31
est de resurrcctione Christi, quia neque derelictus est in
inferno, neque caro ejus vidit corruptionem. Hunc 32
Jesum resuscitavit Deus, cujus omnes dob testes sumus.

Dextera igitur Dei exakatus, ct promissione Spiritus 33
sancti acccpta a Patre, efihdit hunc, quem vos videtas,
ct auditis. Non enim David aacendit in cesium: dixit 34
autem ipse: Dixit Dominus Domino meo, sede a
dextiis meis, donee ponam inimicos tuos scabcllum 35
pedum tuorum. Certissime Beiat ergo omnis domus 36
brad: quia ct Dominum cum, et Christum fecit Deus,
hunc Jesum, quem vos enicilixistis.

,2But Peter seeing them, made answer to
the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel you
at this, or why look you upon us, as though by
our power or holiness we have made thi*
man to walk ? a The God of Abraham, and
the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the
God of our fathers hath glorified his son
Jesus, whom you indeed delivered and denied
before the face of Pilate, he judging him to
he released. "Put you denied the holy and
the just one, and asked a mankillcr to be
given unto you. "But the author of life
you killed, whom God hath raised from the
dead, of which we are witnesses. 16And in
the faith of his name, this man whom you
see and know, his name hath strengthened:
and the faith which is by him, hath given
this perfect health in the sight of all you.

17 And now (brethren) I know that you
did it through ignorance, as also your princes.
lsBut God, who foreshewed by the mouth
of all the prophets, that his Christ should
suffer, hath so fulfilled it. 19Pe Penitent
therefore and convert, that your sins may
be put out; ?°that, when the times shall
come of refreshing by the sight of our Lord,
and he shall send i him that hath been
preached unto you Jesus Christ, 21whom
heaven truly must receive until the times
of the restitution of all things, which God
spake by the mouth of his holy prophets
from the beginning of the world. - Moyses
indeed said, That a prophet shall the Lord
your God raise up lo you of your brethren,
OS myself: him you shall hear according to
all things whatsoever //<• shall speak lo you.
"And it shall he, every soul that shall not
hear thai prophet, shall he destroyed out of
the people. '-'And all the Prophets from
Samuel and afterward that have spoken,
told of these clays. ^You are the children
of the Prophets and of the testament which
God made to our fathers, saying to Abraham,
And in thy seed shall all the families of
the earth be blessed. '-^'To you first G;od
raising up his son, hath sent him blessing
you: that every one should convert himself
from his naughtiness.

And when they were speaking to the
people, the I'rie-ts and magistrates of the
temple and t lie Sadducees came upon them,
-being grieved that they taught the people,
and shewed in Jesus the resurrection from
the dead: 'and they laid bands upon 1 hem,
and put them into ward, until the morrow,
for it was now evening. '•And many of
them that had heard the word, believed :
and the number of the men was made five
thousand.

5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that
their princes, and Ancients, and Scribes were
gathered into Jerusalem; ''and Annas the
hiirh priest, and Caiphas and John, and

Alexander, and as many as were of the

Vidcns autem Petrus, respondit ad populum : Yiri 1 2

Deus patrum nostrorum glorificavit filium suum Je-

turn, et justum negastis, et petistis virum homicidam
donari vobis. Auctorem vero vita? interfecistis, quern 1 5
Deus suscitavit a mortuis, cujus nos testes sumus.
Et in fide nominis ejus, hunc, quern vos vidistis et 16

de fratribus vestris, tamquam me, ipsum audietis juxta
omnia quaecumque locutus fucrit vobis. Erit autem, 23
omnis anima, qua; non audierit Prophetam ilium,
extcrminabitur de plcbe. Et omnes prophets a Samu- 24
el, et dcineeps, qui locuti sunt, annunciaverunt dies
istos. Vos estis filii prophetarum et testamenti, quod 2$
disposuit Deus ad patres nostros dicens ad Abraham:
Et in semine tuo benedicentur omnes familiae terra.

now Lord look upon tlieir threatenings, and
give unto thy servants with all confidence to
speak thy word, M\n that, that thou extend
thy hand to cures and signs and wonders to
he done by the name of thy holy son Jesus.
31 And when they had prayed, the place was
moved wherein they were gathered : and they
were :ill replenished with, the holy Ghost,
and they spake the word of God with con-
fidence.

32 And the multitude of believers had one
heart and one soul : neither did any one say
that ought was his own of those tilings
which he possessed, but all thing9 were
common unto them. B And with great power
did the Apostles give testimony of (lie re-
surrection of Jesus Christ our Lord: and
great grace was in all them. :i'For neither
was there any one needy among them. For
as many as were owners of lands or houses,
sold and brought the prices of those things
which they sold, 3' and laid it before the feet
of the Apostles. And to every one was
divided according as every one had need.
36 And Joseph who was surnamed of the
Apostles Barnabas (which is by interpre-
tation, the son of consolation) a Levite, a
Cyprian born, 3' whereas he had a piece of
jand, sold it, and brought the price, and laid
it before the feet of the Apostles.

But a certain man named Ananias, with
Saphira his wife sold a piece of land, 'and
defrauded of the price of the land, his wife
being privy thereto: and bringing a certain
portion, laid it at the feet of the Apostles.
:iAnil Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan
tempted thy heart, that thou shouldest lie
to the holy Ghost, and defraud of the price
of the land? * Remaining, did it not re-
main to thee: and being sold, was it not in
thy power? Why hast thou put this thing
in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men,
but to God. 5 And Ananias hearing these
words, fell down, and gave up the ghost.
And there came great fear upon all that
heard it. 'And young men rising up, re-
moved_ him, and bearing liim forth buried
him. ''And it was the Bpace as it were of
three hours, and his wife, not knowing what
was chanced, came in. s And Peter/answered
her, Tell me woman, whether did you sell
the land for so much ? Jiut she said, Yea,
for so much. '-'And Peter unto her. Why
have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit
of our Lord? Behold, their feet that nave
buried thy husband, at the door, and they
shall bear thee forth. "Forthwith she fell
before Ins feet, and gave up the (.'host. And
the young men going in, found her dead ;
nnd carried her forth, and buried her by her
husband. nAnd there fell great fear in the
whole Church, and upon all that heard these
things.

in Salomon's porch. 13But of the rest none
durst join themselves unto them : but the
people magnified them. 14 And the multi-
tude of men and women that believed in
our Lord was more increased: 15so that
they did bring forth the sick into the
streets, and laid them in beds and couches,
that when Peter came, his shadow at the
least might overshadow any of them, and
they all might be delivered from their in-
firmities. 16And there ran together unto
Jerusalem the multitude also of the cities
adjoining, bringing sick persons and such
as wei-e vexed of unclean spirits : who were
all cured.

irAnd the high priest rising up, and all
that were with him, which is the heresy of
the Sadducees, were replenished with zeal :
'-laid hands upon the Apostles, and put
them in the common prison. 19But an
Angel of our Lord by night opening the
gates of the prison, and leading them forth,
said, 2° Go ; and standing speak in the temple
to the people all the words of this life.
-1 Who having heard this, early in the morn-
ing entered into the temple, and taught. And
the high priest coming, and they that were
with him, called together the Council and all
the ancients of the children of Israel : and
they sent to the prison that they might be
brought. B But when the ministers were
come, and opening the prison, found them
not: returning they told, _ a saying, The
prison truly we found shut with all diligence,
and the keepers standing before the gates :
but opening it, we found no man within.
'•And as soon as the Magistrate of the
temple and the chief priests heard these
words, they were in doubt of them what
would befall. -'And there came a certain
man and told them, That the men, lo, which
you did put in prison, are in the temple
standing, and teaching the people. -'Then
went the Magistrate with the ministers, and
brought them without force, for they feared
the people lest they should be stoned. -''" And
when they had brought them, they set them
in the Council. And the high priest asked
them, a saying. Commanding we commanded
you that you should not teach in this name : .
and behold you have filled Jerusalem with
vour doctrine, and you will bring upon us
the blood of this man. »Bul Peter answer-
ing and the Apostles, said, <1<><I must be
obeyed, rather than men. "The God of our

honourable to all the people, commanded the
men to be put forth a while. s And he said
to them. Ye men of Israel, take heed to your-
selves touching these men what you mean to
do. •''For before these days there rose
Theodas, saying he was somebody, to whom
consented a number of men about four hun-
dred, who was slain: and all that believed
him were dispersed, and brought to nothing.
37 After this fellow there rose Judas of Ga-
lilee in the days of the Enrolling, and drew
away the people after him, and lie perished :
and as many as ever consented to him, were
dispersed. is And now therefore I sav to
you, depart from these men, and let them
alone : for if this counsel or work be of men,
it will be dissolved: 39but if it be of God,
you are not able to dissolve them, lest perhaps
you be found to resist God also. And they
consented to him. 40And calling in the
Apostles, after they had scourged them, they
charged them that they should not speak in
the name of Jesus, and dismissed them.
41 And they went from the sight of the council
rejoicing, beeausethey were accounted worthy
to Buffer reproach for the name of Jesus.
'-And every day they ceased not in the
temple and from house to house to teach and
evangelize Christ Jesus.

And in those days the number of disciples
increasing, there arose a murmuring of the
Greeks against the Hebrews, for that their
widows were despised in the daily ministry.
-Wild (lie Twelve calling together the multi-
tude of the disciples, said, it is not reason,
that we leave the word of God, and serve
tables. H'onsider therefore brethren, seven
men of you of good testimony, full of the holy
Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint
over this business. 4 But we will be instant in
prayer and the ministry of the word. ■> And
the saving was liked before all the multitude.
And they chose Steven, a man full of faith
and of the holy Ghost, and Philippe, and
I'rochorus, and Nieanor, and Tnnon, and
Parmenas,and Nicolasastrangerof Ant iodic.
''These they did set in the presence of the
Apostles: and praying they imposed hands
upon them. 'And the word of God increased,
and the number of the disciples was multi-
plied in Jerusalem exceedingly : a great mul-
titude also of the priests obeyed the faith.

8 And Steven, full of grace and fortitude,
did great wonders and signs among the peo-
ple. • And there arose certain of thai which

is called the Synagogue of the Libertines,
and of the ( 'yrenians.and of the Alexandrians,
and of them that were of Cilicia and La >,
disputing with Steven: "and they could
nol resist the wisdom and the Spirit that
spake. "Then they suborned men, I
they had heard him speak words of blas-
phemy against Movses and God. '-They
therefore stirred up the people, and the
Ancients, and the Scribes: and running
together they took him, and brought him

7 Dixit autem princeps sacerdotum: Si haec ita se

2 habent ? Qui ait : Viri fratres et patres, audite : Deus
glorias apparuit patri nostro Abraham cum esset in

3 Mesopotamia, prius quam moraretur in Charan. Et
dixit ad ilium: Exi de terra tua, et de cognatione tua,

4 et veni in terram, quam monstravero tibi. Tunc exiit
de terra Chaldreorum, et habitavit in Cliaran. Et
inde, postquam mortuus est pater ejus, transtulit ilium

5 in terram istam, in qua nunc vos habitatis. Et non
dedit illi hereditatem in ea. nee passum pedis: sed
repromisit dare illi earn in possessionem, et semini ejus

6 post ipsum, cum non haberet filium. Locutus est
autem ei Deus: Quia erit semen ejus accola in terra
aliena, et servituti eos subjicient, et male tractabunt

7003 annis quadringentis : et gentem, cui servierint,
judicabo ego, dixit Dominus: et post haec exibunt, et

into the Council, 13and they set false wit-
nesses that said, This man ceaseth not to
speak words against the holy place and the
Law. lfFor we have heard him say, that
this same Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy
this place, and shall change the traditions,
which Moyses delivered unto us. 15 And all
that sat in the Council beholding him, saw
his face as it were the face of an Angel.

And the chief priest said, Are these things
so? 2Who said, Ye men, brethren and
fathers, hear. The God of glory appeared
to our father Abraham when he was in
Mesopotamia, before that he abodein Charan,
3 and said to him. Go forth out of thy coun-
try, and out of thy kindred, and come into
a land that I shall shew thee. 4 Then went
he forth out of the land of the Chaldees, and
dwelt in Charan. And from thence, after
his father was dead, he translated him into
this land, wherein you do now dwell. 5 And
he gave him no inheritance in it, no not the
pace of a foot : and he promised to give it
him in possession, and to his seed after him,
when as he had no child. 6 And God spake
to him, That his seed shall be a sojourner
in a strange country, and they shall subdue
them to servitude, and shall evil entreat
them four hundred years : 'and the nation
which they shall serve, will I judge, said
God ; and after these things they shall go
forth, and shall serve me in this place.

s And ho gave him the testament of cir-
cumcision, and so he begat Isaac, and circum-
cised him the eighth day : and Isaac, Jacob :
and Jacob, the twelve Patriarchs. "And
the Patriarchs, through emulation, sold Jo-
seph into ./Egypt ; and God was with him :
luand delivered him out of all his tribulations;
and he gave him grace and wisdom in the
sight of Pharaoh the king of ..Egypt, and ho
appointed him Governor over -Egypt mid
over all his house. u And there came Famine
upon all ./Egypt and Chanaan, and great tri-
bulation : and our fathers found no victuals.
'-'Put when Jacob had heard that there ,

that they should expose their children, to the
end they might not be kept alive. " The
same time was Moyses born, and lie was ac-
ceptable to God, who was nourished three
months in his father's house. 2I And when
he was exposed, Pharao's daughter took
him up, and nourished him for her own son.
--' And Moyses was instructed in all the wi>-

in his words and works. a And when he
was fully of the age of forty years, it came to
his mind to visit his brethren, the children
of Israel. w And when he had seen one
suffer wrong, he defended him : and striking
the ./Egyptian, he revenged his quarrel that
sustained the wrong. -'And he thought
that his brethren did understand that God
by his hand would save them: but they
understood it not. *And the day following
lie appeared to them being at strife: and he
reconciled them unto peace, saying, Men,
ye are brethren, wherefore hurt you one
another? -'"Hut he that did the injury to
his neighbour, repelled him, saying, Who

Moyses (led upon this word : and he became
a sojourner in the land of Madian, where he
begat two sons. :iu And after forty years were
expired, there appeared to him in the desert
of mount Sina, an Angel in the fire of the
ilame of a bush. al And Moyses seeing it,
marvelled at the vision. And as he went
near to view it, the voice of our Lord was
made to him, •'-' I am the (lod of thy fathers,
the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,

they made a calf in those days, and offered

turned, and delivered them up to serve the
host of heaven, as it is written in the book
of the Prophets : Did you offer victims and
hosts unto me forty years in the desert, O
house of Israel? ® And you took unto you
the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of
your God Rempham, Jigures which you made,

44 The tabernacle of testimony was among
our fathers in the desert, as God ordained
speaking to Moyses, that he should make it
according to the form which he had seen.
B Which our fathers with Jesus receiving,
brought it in also into the possession of the
Gentiles, which God expelled from the face
of our fathers, till in the days of David,
46 Who found grace before God, and desired
that he might find a tabernacle for the God
of Jacob. v And Salomon built him a house.

Samaria, preached Christ unto them. 6 And
the multitudes were attent to those things
which were said of Philippe, with one accord
hearing, and seeing the signs that he did.

7 For many of them that had unclean spirits,
crying with a loud voice, went out. And
many sick of the palsy and lame were cured.

8 There was made therefore great joy in that
city. 9And a certain man named Simon,
who before had been in that city a Magician,
seducing the nation of Samaria, saying him-
self to be some great one: 10unto whom all
hearkened from the least to the greatest,
saving, This man is the power of God, that is
called great. ll And they were attent upon
him, because a long time he had bewitched
them with his magical practices. uBut when
they had believed Philippe evangelising of
the kingdom of God, and of the name of
Jesus Christ, they were baptized, men and
women. "Then Simon also himself believed:
and being baptized, he cleaved to Philippe.
Seeing aiso signs and very great miracles to
be done, he was astonied with admiration.

11 And when the Apostles who were in
Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had re-
ceived the word of God : they sent unto
them Peter and John. 1;> Who when they
were come, prayed lor them, that they might
receive the holy Ghost. '" .For he was not
yet come upon any of them, hut they were
only baptized in the name of our Ford JesUB.
'''Then did they impose their hands upon
them, and they received the holy Ghost.
'■"And when Simon had seen that by the
imposition of the hand of the Apostles, the
holy Ghost was given, he oll'ered them money,
"saying, Give me also this power, thai on
whomsoever I impose my hands, he may
receive the holy Ghost. "But Peter said
to him, Thy money be with thee unto per-
dition : because thou hast thought that the
gift of God is purchased with money. '-"' Thou
baal no part, nor lot. in this word. For thy
heart is not right before God. — Do penance
therefore from this thy wickedness: and
pray to God, if perhaps this cogitation of thy
heart may be remitted thee. '-•' For I see
thou art in the gall of bitterness, and the
obligation of iniquity. -'And SimOU answer-
ing said. Pray you lor me to our Lord, that
nothing conic upon me of these things which
you have said. '-'And they indeed having
testified and spoken the word of our Lord,

dicens: Surge, et vade contra meridianum ad viam,

27 serta. Et surgens abiit. Et ecce vir .ZEthiops,

Philippo: Accede, et adjunge te ad currum istum.

returned to Jerusalem, and evangelized to
many countries of the Samaritans.

^And an Angel of our Lord spake to
Philippe, saying : Arise, and go toward the
South, to the way that goeth down from
Jerusalem into Gaza : this is desert. -7 And
rising he went. And behold, a man of
./Ethiopia, an eunuch, of great authority
under Candace the Queen of the Jithiopians,
who was over all her treasures, was come to
Jerusalem to adore : -s and he was returning
and sitting upon his chariot, and reading Esay
the Prophet. 2J And the Spirit said to Phi-
lippe, Go near, and join thyself to this same
chariot, *° And Philippe running thereunto,
beard him reading Esay the Prophet, and he
said : Trowest thou that thou understandest
the things which thou readest ? 31 Who said,
And how can I, unless some' man shew me?
and he desired Philippe that he would come
up and sit with him. sAnd the place of the
scripture which he did read, was this : As a
sheep to slaughter teas he led : and as a lamb
before his shearer, without voice, so did he
not open his mouth. '^ In humility his judg-
ment teas taken away. Sis generation who
shall declare, for from the earth shall his
life be taken 1 M And the eunuch answering
Philip, said, I beseech thee, of whom doth
the Prophet speak this? of himself, or of
some other? ^And Philip opening his
mouth, and beginning from this scripture,
evangelized unto him Jesus. 3,And as they
went by the way, they came to a certain
water : and the eunuch said, Lo, water, who
doth let me to be baptized? 3!rAnd Philip
said, If thou believe witli all thy heart, thou
mayest. And he answering said, I believe
that Jesus Christ is the son of God. ^ And
he commanded the chariot to stay ; and both
went down into the water, Philip and the
Kunuch, and he baptized him. 3I And when
they were come up out of the water, t he
Spirit of our Lord took away Philip, and tho
eunuch saw him no more. And he went on
Ins way rejoicing. ""Put Philip was found in
Azotus; and passing through, he evangelized
to all tho cities, till he came to Cscsurca.

Lord to him, Arise, and go into tlie city, and
it shall be told thee what thou must do. But
the men that went in company with him,
stood amazed, hearing the voice, but seeing
no man. 8 And Saul rose up from the ground,
and his eyes being opened, he saw nothing.
And they drawing him by the hands, brought
him into Damascus. yAnd he was three
days not seeing, and he did neither eat nor
drink.

'"And there was a certain disciple at
Damascus, named Ananias: and our Lord
said to him in a vision, Ananias. But he
said, Lo, here I am, Lord. u And our Lord
to him, Arise, and go into the street, that is
called Straight ; and seek in the house of
.ludas, one named Saul of Tarsus; for be-
hold he prayeth. 12 (And he saw a man
named Ananias, coming in and imposing
hands upon him for to receive his sight.)
13 But Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard
by many of this man, how much evil he hath
done to thy saints in Jerusalem : "and here
he hath authority from the chief priests to
bind all that invocate thy name. 15 And our
Lord said to him, Go, for a vessel of elect ion
is this man unto me, to carry my name before
the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of
Israel. v' For I will shew him how great
t liiugs he must sutler for my name.

1? And Ananias went, and entered into the
house: and imposing hands upon him, he
said, Brother Saul, our Lord Jesus hath sent
me, he that appeared to thee in the way that
lliou earnest: that thou mavest see and be
tilled with the holy Ghost. 18And forthwith
there fell from his eyes as it were scales,
and he received sight ; and rising he was bap-
tized. " And when he had taken meat, he
was strengthened.

And he was with the disciples that were
at Damascus, for certain days. -'"And in-
continent entering into the synagogues, he
preached Jesus, that this is the son of God.
21 And all that heard, were astonied, and
said, Is not this he that expugned in Jeru-
salem those that invoeated this name: and
came hither to this purpose that lie might
luing them bound to the chief priests ? '-'- But
Saul waxed mighty much more, and eon-
founded the Jews that dwelt at Damascus,
affirming that this is Christ. 21And when
many days were passed, the Jews, consulted
that they might kill him. •* But their con-
spiracy came to Saul's knowledge. And the]
kepi the gates also day and night, that they
might kill him. "But the disciples taking
him in the night, conveyed him away by the
wall, letting him down m a basket.

Lnd when he was come into Jerusalem,
in' assayed t<> join himself to the disciples;
and all feared him, not believing that he was
a disciple. "But Barnabas took him, and

ilium duxit ad Apostolos: ct narravit illis quoraodo
in via vidisset Dorninum, et quia locutus est ei, et
quomodo in Damasco fiducialiter egerit in nomine

28 Jesu. Et erat cum illis intrans, et exiens in Jerusa-

batur quoque Gentibus, et disputabat cum Grsecis: illi

30 autem quserebant occidere eum. Quod cum cogno-
vissent fratres, deduxerunt eum Csesaream, et dimise-
runt Tharsum.

31 Ecclesia quidem per totam Judseam, et Galilseam,
et Samariam habebat pacem, et aedificabatur ambulans
in timore Domini, et consolatione sancti Spiritus re-
plebatur.

32 Factum est autem, ut Petrus dum pertransiret uni-
versos, deveniret ad sanctos, qui habitabant Lydda?.

33 Invenit autem ibi hominem quondam, nomine iEneam,
ab annis octo jacentem in grabato, qui erat paralyticus.

34 Et ait illi Petrus : iEnea, sanat te Dominus Jesus
Christus: surge, et sterne tibi. Et continuo surrexit.

35 Et viderunt eum omnes, qui habitabant Lyddae, et
Saronae: qui conversi sunt ad Dorninum.

l6 In Joppe autem fuit quaxlam discipula, nomine
Tabitha, qua? interpretata dicitur Dorcas. Phec erat
plena operibus bonis, et eleemosynis, quas faciebat.

brought liim to the Apostles, and told them
how in the way he had seen our Lord, and
that he spake unto him, and how in Damascus
he dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.
23 And he was with them going in and going
out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in
the name of our Lord. ^He spake also to
the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks :
but they sought to kill him. m Which when
the brethren had known, they brought him
down to Caesarea, and sent him away to
Tarsus.

31 The Church truly through all Jewry and
Galilee and Samaria had peace, and was
edified, walking in the fear of our Lord, and
was replenished with the consolation of the
holy Ghost.

32 And it came to pass, that Peter, as he
passed through all, came to t lie saints that
dwelt at Lydda: Band he found there a
certain man named tEneas, lying in his bed
from eight years before, who had the palsy.
34 And Peter said to him, ^Eneas, our Lord
Jesus Christ heal thee: arise, and make thy
bed. And incontinent he arose. -^And all
that dwelt at Lydda and Sarona, saw him :
who converted to our Lord.

36 And in Joppe there was a certain dis-
ciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation
is called Dorcas. This woman was full of
good works and alms-deeds which she did.
■» And it came to pass in those days, that she
was sick and died. Whom when they had
washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
^And whereas Lydda was nigh to Joppe,
the disciples hearing that Peter was in it,
they sent two men unto him, desiring him,
Be not loth to come so far as to us. :w And
Peter rising up came with them. And when
he was come, they brought him into t lu-
upper chamber: and all the widows stood
about him weeping, and shewing him the
coats and garments which Dorcas made
them. l0And all being put forth, Peter
falling on 1 1 is knees prayed, and turning to
the body he said: Tabitha, arise. And she
opened her eyes: and seeing Peter, she sal. "
up. '"And giving her his hand, he lifted
her up. And when he had called the saints
and the widows, lie presented her alive.
'-'And it was made known throughout all
Joppe: and many believed in our Lord.

Acts X. 29—48.

quomodo abominatum sit viro Judreo conjungi aut
accedere ad alienigenam : sed ruihi ostendit Deus, ne-
minem communem aut immundum dicere hominem.

29 Propter quod sine dubitatione veni aceersitus. In-

30 terrogo ergo, quam ob causam accersistis me ? Et
Cornelius ait: A nudiusquarta die usque ad hanc
horam, orans eram hora nona in domo mea, et ecce

31 vir stetit ante me in veste Candida, et ait: Corneli,
exaudita est oratio tua, et eleemosynse tuas commemo-

32 rata? sunt in conspectu Dei. Aiitte ergo in Joppen,
et accersi Simonem, qui cognominatur Petrus: hie

33 hospitatur in domo Simonis coriarii juxta mare. Con-
festim en?o misi ad te : ■ et tu bene fecisti veniendo.
Xunc ergo omnes nos in conspectu tuo adsumus audire
omnia quaecumque tibi prascepta sunt a Domino.

34 Aperiens autem Petrus os suum, dixit: In veritate

35 comperi, quia non est personarum acceptor Deus: sed
in omni gente, qui timet eum, et operatur justitiam,

36 acceptus est illi. Verbum misit Deus filiis Israel,
annuncians pacem per Jesum Christum: (hie est

37 omnium Dominus.) Vos scitis quod factum est ver-
bum per universam Judasam : incipiens enim a Galilaca,

38 post baptismum, quod prajdicavit Joannes; Jesum a
Nazareth: quomodo unxit eum Deus Spiritu sancto,
et virtute, qui pertransiit benefaciendo, et sanando
omnes oppressos a diabolo, quoniam Deus erat cum

39 illo: et nos testes sumus omnium, quaa fecit in regione
Judaeorum, et Jerusalem: quern occiderunt suspen-

40 dentes in ligno. Hunc Deus suscitavit tertia die, et

41 dedit eum manifestum fieri, non omni populo, sed

et bibimus cum illo, postquam resurrexit a mortuis.

know how abominable it is for a man that is
a Jew, to join, or to approach unto a stranger:
but God hath shewed to me, to call no man
common or unclean. M For the which cause,
making no doubt, I came when I was sent
for. 1 demand therefore, for what cause you
have sent for me ? * And Cornelius said,
Four days since, until this hour, I was praying
the nintli hour in my house, and behold a
man stood before me in white apparel, 31and
said: Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy
alms-deeds are in memory in the sight of
God. 32Send therefore to Joppe, and call
hither Simon that is surnamed Peter: he
lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner by
the sea side. s Immediately therefore I sent
to thee : and thou hast done well in coming.
Now therefore all we are present in thy sight,
to hear all things whatsoever are commanded
thee of the Lord.

31 And Peter opening his mouth, said, In
very deed I perceive that God is not an ac-
cepter of persons. 3~' But in every nation, he
that feareth him, and worketh justice, is
acceptable to him. M The word did God send
to the children of Israel, preaching peace by
Jesus Christ (this is Lord of all). 3; You
know the word that hath been made through
all Jewry, for beginning from Galilep, after
the baptism which John preached. ^ Jesus
of Nazareth how God anointed him with the
holy Ghost and with power, who went
throughout doing good and healing all that
were oppressed of the Devil, because God
was with him. BAnd we are witnesses of
ail things that he did in the country of the
Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed,
hanging him upon a tree. ',0 I Tim God raised
up the third day and gave him to be made
manifest,41 not to all the people, but to us,
who did eat and drink with him after lie rose
again from the dead. '-And he commanded
us to preach to the people, and to testily
that it is he t hut of (Jod was appointed
judge of the living and of the dead. "To
linn all the prophets give testimony, that nil
receive remission of sins by his name, which
believe in him.

And the Apostles and brethren that were
in Jewry, heard that the Gentiles also re-
ceived the word of God. -And when Peter
was come up to Jerusalem, they that were
of the Circumcision reasoned against him,
saying, :l Why didst thou enter in to men on-
circumcised, and didst eat with them ? 4 J'.ut
Peter began and declared to them the order,
Baying ; 5 1 was in the city of Joppe, praying ;
and I saw in an excess of mind a vision, a
certain vessel descending, as it were a great
sheet, with four corners letdown from heaven,
and it came even unto me. 'Into which L
looking considered, and saw four-footed beasts
of the earth, and cattle, and such as creep,
and fowls of the air. 'And I heard also a
voice saying to me, Arise, Peter, kill, and cat.
s And I said, Not so, Lord : for common or
unclean thing never entered into my mouth.
IJ And a voice answered the second time from
heaven: That which God hath made clean,
do not thou call common. lu And this was
done thrice: and all were taken up again
into heaven. " And behold, three men im-
mediately were come to the house wherein I
was, sent to me from Cicsarea. 12And the
spirit said to me, that I should go with them,
doubting nothing. And there came with me
these six brethren also: and we went into
the man's house. u And he told us, how he
had seen an Angel in his house, standing and
saying to him, Send to Joppe, anil call hither
Simon, that is surnamed Peter, "who shall
speak to thee words wherein thou shalt be
saved, and all thy house. n And when 1 had
begun to speak, the holy Ghost fell upon
them, as upon us also in the beginning. 16 And
I remembered the word of our Lord, accord-
ing as he said, John indeed baptized with
Water, hut yon .shrill he baptized with the
holy Ghost ''If therefore God hath given
them the same grace, as to us also that be-
lieved in our Lord Jesus Christ: who was I
that might prohibit God? Is Having heard
these things, they held their peace: and glo-
ritied God, saying, Goil then to the Gentiles
also hath given repentance unto life.

,J And they truly that had been dispersed
by the tribulation that was made under
Steven, walked throughout unto I'lueniee
and Cypres and Antioehe, speaking the word
to none, but to the Jews only. '-" lint certain
of them were men of Cypres and Cyrcne,
who when they were entered into Antioehe,
spake to the Greeks, preaching our Lord
Jesus. :l And the hand of our Lord was with
them: and a great number of believers WM
converted to our Lord. "And the report
came to the ears of the Church that wa
Jerusalem, touching these things: and they
sent Barnabas as far as Antioehe. "Who
when he was come, and saw the grace of
God, rejoiced) and lie exhorted all with
purpose of heart to continue in our Lord :

multam, ita ut cognominarentur primum Antioehias

Agabus, significabat per spiritum famem magnam

posuerunt singuli in ministerium mittere habitantibus

30 in Judaea fratribus : quod et fecerunt, mittentes ad

24 because he was a good man, and full of
the holy G-host and faith. And a great
multitude was added to our Lord. ^And
he went forth to Tarsus, to seek Saul : ^ whom
when he had found, he brought him to
Antioche. And they conversed there in the
church a whole year : and they taught a great
multitude, so that the disciples were at
Antioche first named Christians.

27 And in these days there came Prophets
from Jerusalem to Antioche, ^and one of
them rising, named Agabus, did by the Spirit
signify a great famine that should be in the
whole world, which fell under Claudius.
2jAnd the disciples, according as each man
had, purposed every one to send, for to serve
tho brethren that dwelt in Jewry: ^ which
also they did, sending to the ancients by tho
hands of Barnabas and Saul.

And at the same time Herod the king set
his hands, to afflict certain of the Church.
2 And he killed James the brother of John
with the sword. 3 And seeing that it pleased
the Jews, he added to apprehend Peter also.
And it was the days of the Azymes. 4 Whom
when he had apprehended, he cast into
prison, delivering him to four quaternions
of soldiers to be kept, meaning after the
Pasche to bring him forth to the people.
; And Peter indeed was kept in prison. But
prayer was made of the Church without
intermission unto God for him. 6 And when
Herod would have brought him forth, the
same night Peter was sleeping between two
soldiers, bound with two chains: and the
keepers before the door kept the prison.
''And behold an Angel of our Lord stood in
presence: and light sinned in the house:
and striking Peter's side, he raised him,
saying. Arise quickly. And the chains fell
from his hands. 8And the Angel said to
him. Gird thee, and put on thy shoes. And
he did so. And he said to him, Put thy
garment about thee, and follow me. '.And
going forth he followed him, and he knew not
that it was true which was done by the
Angel : but he thought that lie saw a vision.
"'And passing through the first and the second
watch, they came to the iron gate tlmt leadeth

to the city, Which of itself opened to them.
And going out, they went forward one Street !

and incontinent the Angel departed from
him. "And Peter returning to himself,
said: Now I know in very deed thai our Lord

hath lent bis Angel, and delivered me out of

Herod's hand, and from all the expectation
of the people of the Jews,

Peter's voice, for joy she opened not tlie gate,
but running in she told that Peter stood
before the gate. 15Put they said to her, Thou
art mad. Put she affirmed that it was so.
Put they said, It is his Angel. 16And Peter
continued knocking. And when they had
opened, they saw him, and were astonied.
17 And beckoning with his hand to them, that
they should hold their peace, he told how
our Lord had brought him out of prison,
and he said, Tell these things to James and
to the brethren. And going forth he went
into another place. J8 And when day was
come, there was no little ado between the
soldiers, what was become of Peter. "And
Herod, when he had sought him, and had
not found, making inquisition of the keepers,
commanded them to be led away : and going
down from Jewry into Cscsarea. there he
abode. 2" And he was angry with the Tyrians
and the Sidonians. Put they with one
accord came to him, and persuading Plastus
that was chief of the king's chamber, they
desired peace, for that; their countries were
nourished by him. -'And upon a day ap-
pointed, Herod being arrayed with kingly
attire, sat in the judgment seat, and made
an oration to them. -And the people made
acclamation, The voices of a Goo, and not of
a man. -'And forthwith an Angel of our
Lord struck him, because he had, not given
the honour to God: and being consumed of
worms, he gave up the ghost. -4Put the
word of our Lord increased] and multiplied.
'-'And Parnabas and Saul returned from Jeru-
salem, having accomplished their ministry.
taking with them Johu that was surnamca
Marke.

And there were in the Church which was
at Ant iodic, Prophets and Doctors, among
who was Barnabas, and Simon that was
called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and
Manahen who was the foster-brother of
Herod the Tetrarch, and Saul. -And as
they wen- ministering to our Lord, and
fasting, the holy Ghost said: Separate me
Saul and Parnabas unto t lie work, whereto
I have taken them. •'Then they lasting and
praying, and imposing hands upon them,
dismissed them.

'And they being sent of the holy Ghost,
went to Seleucia, and thence sailed to Cypres.
5 And when they were come to Salaniina,
they preached the word of God in the syna-
gogues of the Jews. And they had John also
in their ministry. 6And when they bad
walked throughout the whole island as far
as Paphos, they found a certain man that
was a magician, a false prophet, aJew, whose

name was Par-iesu', "who was with the Pro-

ponsul Sergius Paulusa wise man. He .-end-
ing for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear
the word of God. 8Put Elymas the magician
(for so is his name interpreted) resisted them,
seeking to avert the Proconsul from the
faith, i Bui SauL otherwise PauL replenished
with the holy Ghost, looking upon him,
10 said: 0 full of all guile, and all deceit, son
Of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou

11 And now behold the hand of our Lord
upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing
the sun until a time. And forthwith there
fell dimness and darkness upon him, and
going about he sought somebody that would
give him his hand. 13Then the Proconsul,
when he had seen that which was done, be-
lieved, marvelling at the doctrine of our Lord.
13 And when Paid and they that were with
him had sailed from Paphos, they came to
Perge in Pamphylia. And John departing
from them, returned to Jerusalem. u But
they passing through Perge, came to Antioche
in Pisidia : and entering into the synagogue
on the day of the Sabbaths, they sat down.
15 And after the lesson of the Law and the
Prophets, the princes of the Synagogue sent
to them, saying, Men brethren, if there bo
among you any sermon of exhortation to the
people, speak.

15 And Paul rising up, and with his hand
beckoning for silence, said, Ye men of Israel,
and you that fear God, hearken : '7 The God
of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and
exalted the people when they were sojourners
in the land of iEgypt, and in a mighty arm
brought them out thereof, Hand for the space
of forty years tolerated their manners in the
desert. 'aAnd destroying seven nations in
the land of Chanaan, by lot he divided their
land among them, :oas it were after four
hundred and fifty years: and after these
things he gave Judges, until Samuel the pro-
phet. 21And thenceforth they desired a
King: and he gave them Said the son of Cis,
a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.
— And removing him, he raised them up
David to be king : to whom giving testimony,
he said, I have found David the son of Jesse,
a man according to my heart, who shall do
all my wills.

23 Of his seed God according to his promise
hath brought forth to Israel a Saviour Jesus,
-'John preaching before the face of his
coming, baptism of penance to all the people
, i \ lul when John fulfilled his

course, he said, Whom do you think me to
I am not lie, but behold there eon.eth
after me, whose shoes of his feet 1 am not

the second Psalm also it is written: My son
art thou, this da>/ hare I begotten thee.
34 And that heraisedhimupfrom the dead, not
to return now any more into corruption, thus
he said, That I will {jive you the holy things
of David faithful. 3i And therefore in an-
other place also he saith, Thou shalt not aire
thy holy one to see corruption. -^For David
in his generation when he had served, ac-
cording to the will of God slept : and he was
laid to his fathers, and saw corruption.
V But he whom God hath raised up, saw no
corruption.

38 Be it known therefore to you, men
brethren, that through him, forgiveness of
sins is 'preached to you, from all the things
from the which you could not be justified by
the law of Moyses. ™ In him every one that
believeth is justified. *'Takc heed therefore
lest that come upon you which is spoken in
the prophets, fl See ye contemners, and won-
der, and perish : because 1 work a work in
your days, a work which you will not believe,
if any man shall tell it you.

42 And they going forth, they desired them
that the Sabbath following they would speak
unto them these words. 43And when the
synagogue was dismissed, many of the Jews,
and of the strangers serving God, followed
Paul and Barnabas : who speaking exhorted
them to continue in the grace of God. 4,But
the next Sabbath the whole city almost as-
sembled to hear the word of God. 45And
the Jews seeing the multitudes, were re-
plenished with envy, and contradicted those
things which were said of Paul, blaspheming.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas constantly said,
To you it behoved us first to speak the word
of God: but because you repel it, and judge
yourselves unworthy of eternal life; behold
we turn to the Gentiles. '■ For so our Lord
commanded us: / have put thee to be I he
light of the Gentiles; that thou mayest be
snl ration unto the utmost of the earth.
u And the Gentiles hearing it, were glad, and
glorified the word of our Lord: and there
believed as many as were preordinate to life
everlasting. 49And the word of our Lord
was spread throughout the whole country.
60 But the Jews stirred up religious and
honest women, and the chief of the city, and
raised persecution against Paul and Bar-
nabas: and they did oasl them forth out of
t heir coasts. 6I But they shaking off t he (lust
of their feel against them, came to Ioonium.

Phe disciples also were replenished with
joy and with the holy Ghost.

And it came to pass at Iconium that they
entered together into the synagogue of the
.lews, and so spake, that a very great multi-
tude of .lews and of the (ireeks did believe.
'-But the .lews that were incredulous, stirred
op and incensed the hearts of the Gentiles
to anger agains) the brethren. 3 A long time
therefore they abode, dealing confidently in

facta est: quoniam hanc Deus adimplevit filiis nostris, 33
resuscitans Jesum, sicut et in Psalmo secundo scriptum
est: Filiua meus es tu, ego hodie genui te. Quod au- 34
tern suscitavit eum a mortuis, amplius jam non rever-
surum in corruptionem, ita dixit: quia dabo vobis sanc-
ta David fidclia. Ideoque et alias dicit: Non dabis 35
Sanctum tuum videre corruptionem. David enim, in 36
sua generatione cum administrasset voluntati Dei,
dormivit, et appositus est ad patres suos, et vidit corrup-
tionem. Quern vero Deus suscitavit a mortuis, non 37
vidit corruptionem.

Xotum igitur sit vobis, viri fratres, quia per hunc vo- 38

quibus non potuistis in lege Moysi justificari. In hoc 39
omnis, qui credit, justificatur. Videte ergo ne super- 40

our Lord, who gave testimony to the word of
his grace, granting signs and wonders to be
done by their hands. 4 And the multitude
of the city was divided : and certain of them
indeed were with the Jews, but certain with
the Apostles. 5 And when the Gentiles and
the Jews with their princes had made an
assault, to use them contumeliously, and to
stone them, 6 understanding it, they fled to
the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe,
and the whole country about, and there they
were evangelizing.

"And a certain man at Lystra, impotent
of his feet, sat there, lame from his mother's
womb, that never had walked. sThis same
heard Paul speaking. Who looking upon
him, and seeing that he had faith for to be
saved, 9he said with a loud voice, Stand up
right on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.

10 And the multitudes, when they had seen
what Paul had done, lifted up their voice in
the lycaonian tongue, saying, Gods made
like to men, are descended to us. u And they
called Barnabas, Jupiter: but Paul, Mer-
curie, because he was the chief speaker.
12 The Priest also of Jupiter that was before
the city, bringing oxen and, garlands before
the gates, would with the people sacrifice.

11 Which thing when the Apostles Barnabas
and Paul heard, renting their coats, they
leaped forth into the multitudes, crying 14and
saying, Ye men, why do you these things?
We also are mortal, men like unto you,
preaching to you for to convert from these
vain things, to the living God that made the
heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all
things that are in them : 15 who in the genera-
tions past suffered all the Gentiles to go their
own ways. ""Howbcit he left not himself
without testimony, being beneficial from
heaven, giving rains, and fruitful seasons,
filling our hearts with food and gladness.
'■ And speaking these things, they scarce
appeaseel the multitudes from sacrificing to
them. lsBut there came in certain Jews
from Antiocheand Iconium: and persuading
the multitudes, and stoning Paul, they drew
him out of the city, thinking him to be dead.
'Mini the; disciples compassing him round
about, he rising up, entered into the city,
and the next day he went forth with Bar-
nabas unto Berbe.

which they accomplished. -° And when they
were come, and had assembled the Church.
they reported what great things God had
done with them, and that he had opened a
door of faith to the Gentiles. -' And they
abode no little time with the disciples.

And certain coming down from Jewry,
taught the brethren : That unless you be
circumcised according to the manner of Moy-
ses, you cannot be 9aved. 2 No little sedition
therefore being risen to Paul and Barnabas
against them, they appointed that Paul and
Barnabas should go up, and certain others
of the rest, to the Apostles and priests unto
Jerusalem, upon this question.

3 They therefore being brought on their
way by the Church, passed through Phcenice
and Samaria, reporting the conversion of the
Gentiles : and they made great joy to all the
brethren.

4 And when they were come to Jerusalem,
they were received of the Church and of the
Apostles and Ancients, declaring whatsoever
God had done with them. "And there arose
certain of the heresy of the Pharisees that
believed, saying. That they must be circum-
cised, commanded also to keep the law of
Moyses. 6And the Apostles and Ancients
assembled to consider of this word.

1 And when there was made a great dis-
putation, Peter rising up said to them, Men
brethren, you know that of old days God
among us chose, that by my mouth the
Gentiles should hear the word of the Gospel,
and believe. 8 And God which knoweth the
hearts, gave testimony, giving unto them the
holy Ghost as well as to us, 9and hath put
no difference between us and them, by faith
purifying their hearts. lu Now therefore why
tempt you Cod, to put a yoke upon the necks
of the disciples, which neither our fathers
nor we have been able to bear? "but by the
graco of our Lord Jesus Christ we believe to
be saved, in like manner as they also.

12Ardallthe multitude held their peace :
and they heard Barnabas and Paul telling
what great signs and wonders God had done
among the Gentiles by them.

1:1 And after they held their peace, James
answered, laying. Men brethren, hear me.
"Simon bath told how God first visited to
take of the Gentiles a people to his name.
■'And to this accord the words of the pro-
phets, as it is written : "'' After these thi nas

contaminations of Idols, and fornication, and
strangled things, and blood. 21For Moyses
of old times hath in every city them that
preach him in the synagogues, where he is
read every Sabbath.

-Then it pleased the Apostles and Ancients,
with the whole Church, to choose men out of
them, and to send to Antioche with Paul and
Barnabas, Judas, who was surnamed Barsa-
bas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren,
3 writing by their hands.

The Apostles and Ancients, the brethren,
to the brethren of the Gentiles that are at
Antioche and in Syria and Cilicia, greeting.
24 Because we have heard that certain going
forth from us, have troubled you with words,
subverting your souls, to whom we gave no
commandment: BIt hath pleased us being
gathered in one, to choose out men, and to
send them unto you with our dearest Bar-
nabas and Paid ; 23men that have given their
lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ :
-' We have sent therefore Judas and Silas,
who themselves also will in words report
unto you the same things. 2i For it hath
seemed good to the holy Ghost and to us, to
lay no further burden upon you than these
necessary things: -'that you abstain from
the things immolated to Idols, and blood,
and that which is strangled, and fornication,
from the which things keeping yourselves,
you shall do well. Fare ye well.

:0They therefore being dismissed, went
down to Antioche : and gathering the multi-
tude, delivered the epistle. 81 Which when
they had read, they rejoiced upon the con-
solation: ^but Judas and Silas, themselves
also being prophets, with many words com-
forted the brethren, and confirmed them.
aAnd having spent some time there, they
were witli peace dismissed of the brethren
unto them that had sent them. MBut it.
med good unto Silas to remain there ; and
Judas departed alone: -^and Paul and Bar-
nabas tarried at Antioche, teaching and
evangelizing with many others the word of
our Lord.

And after certain days, Paul said to
Barnabas. Let us return and visit our breth-
ren in all cities wherein we have preached
the word of our Lord, liow I hey do. ■• And

Acts XVI. 1—21.

And lie came to Derbe and Lystra. And
behold, there was a certain disciple there
named Timothee, the son of a widow woman
that believed, of a father a Gentile. 2To
this man the brethren that were in Lystra
and Iconium, gave a good testimony. 3Him
Paul would have to go forth with him: and
taking him he circumcised him because of
the Jews that were in those places. For
they all knew that his father was a Gentile.

4 And when they passed through the
cities, they delivered unto them to keep the
decrees that were decreed of the Apostles
and Ancients which were at Jerusalem. 5And
the Churches were confirmed in faith, and
did abound in number daily.

GAnd passing through Phrygia and the
country of Galatia, they were forbidden by
the holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.
7 And when they were come into Mysia, they
attempted to go into Bithynia: and the
Spirit of Jesus permitted them not. 8And
wnen they had passed through Mysia, they
went down to Troas: '•'and a vision by night
was shewed to Paul : There was a certain
man of Macedonia standing and beseeching
him, and saying, pass into Macedonia, and
help us. '" And as soon as he had seen the
vision, forthwith we sought to go into Mace-
donia, being assured that God had called us
to evangeli2e to them. "And sailing from
Troas, we came with a straight course to
Samothraeia, and the day following to Nea-
polis : '-and from thence to Philippi, which
is the first city of the part of Macedonia, a
colon ia. And we were in this city certain
days, abiding. uAnd upon the day of the
Sabbaths, we went forth without the gate
beside a river, where it seemed that there
was prayer; and sitting we spake to the
women that were assembled. 14And a cer-
tain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple
of the city of the Thyatinans. one that wor-
shipped God, did hear; whose heart our Lord
opened to attend to those things which were
said of Paul. "And when she was baptized,

you have judged me to be faithful to our
Lord, enter in unto my house, and tarry.
And she constrained us. 18And it came to
pass as we went to prayer, a certain wench
having a Pythonieal spirit, met us, that
brought great gain to her masters by divining.
17 This same following Paul and us, cried
saying, These men are the servants of the
high (iod, which preach unto you the way of
salvation. wAnd this she did many days.
And l'aul being sorry, and turning, said to
the spirit, I command thee in the name of
Jesus Christ to go out from her. And he
went out the same hour. " Hut her masters
seeing thai the hone of their gain was gone,
apprehending Paul and Silas, brought them
into the market place to the Princes: "and

eum propter Judceos, qui erant in illis locis. Sciebant

22 And the people ran against them ; and the
magistrates tearing their coats, commanded
them to be beaten with rods. ^ And when
they had laid many stripes upon them, they
did cast them into prison, commanding the
keeper that he should keep them diligently.
21 Who when he had received such command-
ment, cast them into the inner prison, and
made their feet fast in the stocks. 25 And at
midnight, Paul and Silas praying, did praise
God. And they that were in prison, heard
them. 2liBut suddenly there was made a
great earthquake, so that the foundations of
the prison were shaken. And forthwith all
the doors were opened : and the bands of all
were loosed. 2'~ And the keeper of the prison
waked out of his sleep, and seeing the doors
of the prison opened, drawing out his sword,
would have killed himself, supposing that the
prisoners had been lied. ^But Paul cried
with a loud voice, saying. Do thyself no harm,
for we are all here. ^And calling for light,
he went in, and trembling fell down to Paul
and Silas at their feet : ^and bringing them
forth, he said, Masters, what must I do that

I may be saved? 3lBut they said, Believe in
our Lord Jesus : and thou shalt be saved, and
thy house. ^And they preached the word
of our Lord to him with all that were in his
house. a!And he taking them in the same
hour of the night, washed their wounds : and
himself was baptized and all his house incon-
tinent. ^And when he had brought them
into his own house, he laid the table for
them, and rejoiced with all his house, be-
lieving God. 3iAnd when day was come,
the magistrates sent the Serjeants, saying,
Let those men go. "6 And the keeper of the
prison told these words to Paul, That the
magistrates have sent that you should be let
L"> : now therefore departing, go ye in peace.
a'" liut Paul said to them : Being whipped
openly, uncondemned, men that arc Romans,
they have cast us into prison: and now do

I I icy send us out secretly? Not so, but let
them come, and let us out themselves. "And
the sergeants reported these words to I ho
magistrates. And they were afraid, hearing
t hut they were Romans : -"and coming they
besought them, and bringing them forth they
desired them to depart out of the city. '"And
going out of the prison, they entered in unto

comforted them, and departed.

5 But the Jews envying, and taking unto
them of the rascal sort certain naughty men,
and makings tumult, stirred the city: and
beaetting Jason's house, sought to bring them
forth unto the people. 6And not finding
them, they drew Jason and certain brethren
to the princes of the cits', crying, That these
are they that stir up the world, and are come
hither,' whom Jason hath received, and all
these do against the decrees of Caesar, saying
that there is another king, Jesus. 8 And they
moved the people, and the princes of the oity
hearing these things. yAnd taking a satis-
faction of Jason and of the rest, they dis-
missed them. 10 But the brethren forthwith
by night sent away Paul and Silas unto
Berceu.

"Who when they were come, entered into
ihe synagogue of the Jews. "(And these
were more noble than they that are at Thcs-
salonica, who received the word with all
greediness, daily searching the scriptures, if
these things were so. '-'And many surely of
them believed, and of honest women Gentiles,
and men not a few.) ::l And when the Jews
in Thessalonica understood, that at Bercea
also the word of God was preached by Paul,
they came thither also, moving and troubling
the multitude. 14 And then immediately ihe
brethren sent, away Paul, to go unto the sea:
but Silas and Timothy remained there.
'■'And they that conducted Paul, brought
him as far as Athens, and receiving com-
mandment of him to Silas and Timothy, that
they should come to hiin very speedily, they
departed.

10 And when Paid expected them at Athens,
his spirit was incensed within him, seeing
the city given to Idolatry, '"lie disputed
therefore in the synagogue with the Jews,
and them that served (!od, and in the mar-
ket-place, every day with them that were
there. ,8 And certain Philosophers of the Epi-
i ures and the Stoics disputed with him, and
certain said, What is it that this word-sower
would say? But others, He seemeth to be a
preacher of new gods ; because he preached

to them Jesus and the resurrection. 19And
apprehending him, they led him to Areopagus,
Baying, May we know what this new doctrine
is that thou speakest of? '-"for thou bringeat
in certain new things to our cars. We will
know therefore what these things may mean.
-'(And all the Athenians, and the strangers
sojourning there, employed themselves to
nothing else but either to speak, or to hear
some news.) -But Paul standing in the
midst of Areopagus, said :

Ye men of Athens, in all things T perceive
you as it were superstitious. '-'For pa
by and seeing your Idols, 1 found an altar
also whereupon was written, '/'« the unknown
Qod, That therefore which you worship,
not knowing it, the same do 1 preach to you.

nobiles non paucas. Zclantes autem Judau, assumen- 5
tesquc de vulgo viros quosdam malos, et turba facta,
concitaverunt civitatem : et assistentes domui Jasonis
qurcrebant cos producere in populum. Et cum non 6
invenissent eos, trahebant Jasonem et quosdam fratres
ad principes civitatis, clamantcs : Quoniam hi, qui
Orbem concitant, et hue venerunt, quos suscepit Jason, /
et hi omnes contra decreta Caisaris faciunt, regem alium
dicentes esse, Jcsum. Concitaverunt autem plebem et 8
principes civitatis audientes hscc. Et acccpta satis- 9
iactione a Jasone, et a ceteris, dimiserunt eos. Fratres 10
vero confestim per noctem dimiserunt Paulum et Silam
in Bcrceam.

Qui cum venisscnt, in synagogam Judaiorum in-
troicrunt. Hi autem erant nobiliores eorum, qui sunt 1 1
Thessalonica;, qui susceperunt verbum cum omni avidi-
tate, quotidie scrutantes Scripturas, si ha;c ita se habc-
rent. Et multi quidem crediderunt ex cis, et mulierura 12
Gcntilium honestarum, et viri non pauci. Cum autem 1 3
cognovissent in Thessalonica Judau, quia et Berate
pnedieatum est a Paulo verbum Dei, venerunt et illuc
commoventes et turbantcs multitudinem. Statimque 14
tunc Paulum dimiserunt fratres, ut irct usque ad
mare : Silas autem, et Timotheus remanserunt ibi.
Qui autem deducebant Paulum, perduxerunt cum 15
usque Athcnas, et accepto mandato ab eo ad Silam et
Timotheum, ut quain eelcriter venircnt ad ilium, pro-
fecti sunt.

Paulus autem cum Athcnis eos cxpcctarct, incita- 16
batur spiritus ejus in ipso, videns idololatria- deditam
civitatem. Disputabat igitur in synagoga cum Judaaia 17
et colentibus, et in foro per omnes dies ad eos, qui
aderant. Quidam autem Epicurei et Stoici philoeopbi 18
dissercbant cum co, et quidam dicebant: Quid vult
seminivcrbius hie diccrc? Alii vero: Novorum da'mo-
niorum videtur annunciator esse: quia Jcsum et resur-
rcctionem annunciabat cis. Et apprehensuin cum ad 19
Areopagum duzerunt, dicentes: Poesumua scire qua1
est haac nova, qun a te dicitur, doctrina? Nova enim 20
quaedam infers auribus nostris : Volumus ergo scire
quidnam velint luce esse. (Atheniensea autem omnes, 21
et advenaa hospites, ad nihil aliud vacabant, nisi aut
diccrc, aut audi re aliquid novi.) Stans autem Paulus 22
in medio Arcopagi, ait:

sicut et quidam vestrorum Poetarum dixerunt: ipsius

29 enim et genus sumus. Genus ergo cum simus Dei,
non debemus ajstimare auro aut argento aut lapidi,
sculpturae artis et cogitationis hominis, Divinum esse

ciens Deus, nunc annunciat hominibus ut oinncs

3 1 ubique pcenitentiam agant, eo quod statuit diem, in
quo judicaturus est orbem in rcquitate, in viro, in
quo statuit, fidem praebens omnibus, suscitans eum a
mortuis.

32 Cum audissent autem resurrectionem mortuorum,
quidam quidem irridebant, quidam vero dixerunt :

33 Audiemus te de hoc iterum. Sic Paulus exivit de

34 medio eorum. Quidam vero viri adhajrentes ei, credi-
derunt: in quibus et Dionysius Areopagita, et mulicr
nomine Damaris, et alii cum eis.

18 Post hacc egressus ab Athenis, venit Corinthum :

2 et inveniens quondam Judteum nomine Aquilam,
J'onticum genere, qui nupcr venerat ab Italia, et
Priscillam uxorem ejus, (eo quod praicepisset Claudius

3 discedere omnes Judaeos a Roma) accessit ad eos. Et
quia fjjusdem erat artis, manebat apud eos, et opcra-

4 batur: (erant autem BCenofactoriae artis.) Et dispu-

24 The God that made the world and all things
that are in if, lie being Lord of heaven and
earth, dvvelleth not in temples made with
hand, -5 neither is he served with men's
hands, needing any thing, whereas himself
giveth life unto all, and breathing, and all
things : -^and he made of one all mankind,
to inhabit upon the whole face of the earth,
assigning set- times, and the limits of their
habitation, 2;,for to seek God, if happily they
may feel or find liim, although he be not far
from every one of us. 2sFor in him we live
and move and be, as certain also of your own
poets said, For of his kind also tee are.
29 Being therefore of God's kind, we may not
suppose the Divinity to be like unto gold or
silver, or stone, the graving of art and device
of man. ^And the times truly of this ig-
norance whereas God despised, now lie dc-
nounceth unto men that all everywhere do
penance, 31 for that he hath appointed a day
wherein he will judge the world in equity, by
a man whom he hath appointed, giving all
men faith, raising him up from the dead.

3: And when they had heard the resurrec-
tion of the dead, certain indeed mocked, but
certain said, We will hear thee again con-
cerning this point. ^So Paul went forth out
of the midst of them. 3l13ut certain men
joining unto him, did believe : among whom
was also Dionysius Areopagita, and a woman
named Darnaris, and others with them.

After these things, departing from Athens,
lie came to Corinth. -'And finding a certain
Jew, named Aqtlila, born in Pontus, who of
late was come out of Italic, anil Priscilla his
wife (because Claudius had commanded all
Jews to depart from Rome), he came to them.
'And because he was of the same craft, he
remained with them, and wrought, (and they
were tcntinakcrs by their craft.) 'And he
disputed in the synagogue every Sabbath,
interposing the name of our Lord .lesus, ami
he exhorted the Jews and the Greeks. ' Lnd
when Silas and Timot lice were come from
Macedonia, Paul was instant in preaching,
ing to the .lews 1 1 ■ m t Jesus is Christ.
' Bui t In \ contradicting and blaspheming, hu
shaking his garments, said to them, xour

no man shall set upon thee to hurt thee: for
I have much people in this city. uAnd he
sat there a year and six months, teachiug
among them the word of God.

13 But Gallio being Proconsul of Achaia,
the Jews with one accord rose up against
Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
13 saying, That this man contrary to the Law
persuadeth men to worship God. u And
Paul beginning to open his mouth, Gallio
said to the Jews, If it were some unjust
tiling, or an heinous fact, O you men Jews,
I should by reason bear you. 15But if they
be questions of word and names, and of your
law, yourselves look unto it: 1 will not be
judge of these things. '''And he drove them
from the judgment scat. '-"And all appre-
hending Sostnenes, the prince of the syna-
gogue, struck him before the judgment seat:
and Gallio cared for none of those things.

18 But Paul when he had stayed yet many
days, taking Ids leave of the brethren, sailed
to Syria, (and with him Priacilla and Aquila,)
who had shorn his head in Cenchrisj for he
had a vow. 19And he came unto Lphesus,
and them he left there. But himself entering
into the synagogue, disputed with the Jews.
"And when they desired him, that he would
tarry a longer time, he consented not, 21 but
taking his leave, and saying, I will return to
you again God willing, he departed from
Ephesus. -J And going down to CVsarea, he
went up, and saluted the Church, and came
down to Antioch.

88 And having tarried there a certain time,
he departed, walking in order through the
country of Galalia and Phrygia, confirming
all the disciples.

-4 And a certain Jew. named Apollo, born
nt Alexandria, an eloquent man, came to
Ephesus, mighty in the scriptures. '-''This
man was taught the way of our Lord; and
being fervent in spirit lie apake, and taught
diligently those things thai pertain to Jesus,
knowing only the baptism of John. "This
man therefore began to deal confidently in
the synagogue. Whom when Priscilla and
Aquila had heard, they took him unto them,
and expounded to him the way of our Lord
more diligently. -"And whereas lie was
desirous to go to Achaia, the brethren ex-
horting wrote to the disciples to receive him.
Who, when he was come, profited them
much that had believed. "For he with
vehemency convinced the Jews openly,
shewing by the scriptures that Jesus is
Christ.

And it came to pass, when Apollo was at
Corinth, that Paul haying gone through the

higher parts came to Kphcsus, and found

certain disciples: '-'and he said to them,
Save you received the holy Ghost, believ-
ing? Hut thev said to him. May, neither
have we heard whether there be a holy
Ghost. aBut he said, In what then were

tc: quoniam populus est mihi raultus in hac civitato.
Sedit autem ibi annum et sex menses, docens apud eos 1 1
verbum Dei.

Gallione autem proconsule Achaias, insurrexerunt 12
uno animo Judsei in Paulurn, et adduxerunt eum ad
tribunal, dicentcs: Quia contra legem hie persuadct 13
hominibus colore Deum. Incipiente autem Paulo 14
aperire os, dixit Gallio ad Judseos: Si quidem esset
iniquum aliquid, aut facinus pessimum, o viri Judasi,
recte vos sustinercm. Si vero qutestioncs "sunt dei5
verbo, et nominibus, et lege vestra, vos ipsi videritis :
judex ego horum nolo esse. Et minavit eos a tribunali. 16
Apprchendcntcs autem omnes Sosthenem principcm 17
synagoga^, pcrcuticbant eum ante tribunal: et nihil
eorum Gallioni cune crat.

Paulus vero cum adhuc sustinuisset dies multos, iS
fratribus valcfaciens, navigavit in Syrian), (et cum eo
Priscilla, et Aquila) qui sibi totonderat in Cenchreis
caput: habebat enim votum. Devenitque Ephesum, 19
et illos ibi reliquit. Ipse vero ingressus synagogam,
disputabat cum Judseis. Rogantibus autem eis ut 20
ampliori tempore maneret, non consensit, sed vale- 2 1
faciens, et dicens, Iterum reverter ad vos Deo volentc,
profectus est ab Epheso. Et descendens Crcsaream, 22
ascendit, et salutavit Ecclesiam, et descendit Antio-
chiam.

Et facto ibi aliquanto tempore profectus est, peram
bulans ex ordinc Galaticam regionem
confirmans omnes discipulos.

Judams autem quidam, Apollos nomine, Alexan-
drinus genere, vir eloquens, devenit Ephesum, potens
in scripturis. Hie erat edoctus viam Domini : et
fervens spiritu loquebatur, et docebat diligenter ea,
quae sunt Jesu, sciens tentum baptisma Joannis. Hie
ergo cccpit fiducialitcr agere in synagoga. Quem cum
audisscnt Priscilla et Aquila, assumpserunt cum, et
diligentius cxposuerunt ei viam Domini. Cum autem 27
vellet ire Achaiam, cxhortati fratros, scripsorunt disci-
pulis ut suscipcrent eum. Qui com vonisset, contulit
multum his, qui crcdidf rant. Vehementer enim Jiutoos 2S
revincebat publice, ostendens per Scriptuias esse Chris-
tum Jcsum.

Factum est autem. cum Apollo? csset Corinthi, ut 19
Paulu?, pcragratis Buperioribus partibus, veniret Ephc-
Bum, et inveniret quosdam discipulos: dixitque ad cos: 2
Si Spiritum sanctum accepistis credentes? At illi

5 crederent, hoc est, in Jesum. His auditis, baptizati

6 sunt in nomine Domini Jesu. Et cum imposuisset
illis manus Paulus, venit Spiritus sanctus super eos, et

7 loquebantur linguis, et prophetabant. Erant autem
omnes viri fere duodecim.

est per biennium, ita ut omnes, qui babitabant in Asia,
audirent verbum Domini, Judrci atque Gentiles.

you baptized ? Who said, In John's baptism.
4 And Paul said, John baptized the people
with the baptism of penance, saying: That
they should believe in him that was to come
after him, that is to say, in Jesus. 3 Hearing
these thiugs, they were baptized in the name
of our Lord Jesus. 6And when Paul had
imposed hands on them, the holy Ghost
came upon them, and they spake with
tongues, and prophesied. 'And all the men
were about twelve.

8 And entering into the synagogue, he spake
confidently for three months, disputing and
exhorting of the kingdom of God. 9Eut
when certain were indurate, and believed
not, ill-speaking the way of our Lord before
the multitude, departing from them, he
separated the disciples, daily disputing in the
school of one Tyrannus. 10And this was
done for the space of two years, so that all
which dwelt in Asia, heard the word of our
Lord, Jews and Gentiles.

"And God wrought by the hand of Paul
miracles not common : ^so that there were
also brought from his body napkins or hand-
kerchiefs upon the sick, and the diseases de-
parted from them, and the wicked spirits
went out. 13 And certain also of the Juduical
exorcists that went about, assayed to invo-
cate upon them that had evil spirits the
name of our Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you
by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. " And there
were certain sons of Seeva a Jew, chief priest,
seven, that did this. 15But the wicked spirit
answering, said to them, Jesus I know, and
Paul I know : but you, what arc ye? _ "And
the man in whom the wicked spirit, was,
leaping upon them, and mastering both, pre-
vailed against them, so that they fled out of
that house, naked and wounded. " And this
was made notorious to all the Jews and the
Gentiles that dwelt at Ephesus : and fear
fell upon all them, and the name of our Lord
Jesus was magnified. l8And many of them
t hal believed, came confessing and declaring
their deeds. " And many of them that had
followed curious things, brought together
their hooks, and burnt them before all : and
counting the prices of them, they found the
money to be fifty thousand pence. BSo
mightily increased the word of God, and was
confirmed.

-'And when these things were ended, Paul
purposed in the Spirit, when he had passed
through Macedonia and Allium, to go to
Jem, saying, -A ft • r I shall have bet n
there. I musl leeBome also. -And sending

the artificers no small gain: -5whom calling
together and them that were the same kind
of workmen, he said, Sirs, you know that
our gain is of this occupation: 2l'and you
see and hear that this same Paul by persua-
sion hath averted a great multitude not only
of Ephesus, but almost of all .Asia, saying.
That they are not gods which be made by
hands. :~ And not only unto us is this part
in danger to be reproved, but also the temple
of great Diana shall be reputed for nothing,
yea and her majesty shall begin to be de-
stroyed, whom all Asia and the world wor-
shinpeth. -s Hearing these things, they were
replenished with anger, and cried out Baying,
Great is Diana of the Ephesians. ffl And the
whole city was filled with confusion, and
they ran violently with one accord into the
theatre, catching Gaius and Aristarchus,
Macedonians, Paul's companions. 3uAnd
when Paul would have entered in to the
people, the disciples did nol permit him.
alAnd certain also of the Princes of Asia
that were his friends, sent unto him, desiring
that he would not adventure himself into
the theatre: 3-and others cried another
thing. For the assembly was confused, and
the more part knew not for what cause they
were assembled. BAnd of the multitude
they drew forth Alexander, the Jews thrust-
ing him forward. Put Alexander with his
hand desiring silence, would have given tho
people satisfaction. -14 Whom a9 soon as they
perceived to be a Jew, there was made one
voice of all, almost for the space of two hours
crying out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35 Ami when the Scribe had appeased the
multitudes, he saith,Ye men of Ephesus, for
what man is there that knoweth not the city
of the Ephesians to be a worshipper of great
Diana, and Jupiter's child? x Forasmuch
therefore as these things cannot be gain-
said, you must be quieted, and do nothing
rashly. •''" For you have brought these men,
being neither sacrilegious, nor blaspheming
your Goddess. :s Put if Demetrius and the
artificers that are with him, have matter to
say against any man, there are Courts kept
in the common place, and there are Pro-
consuls, let them accuse one another. -"An I
if you ask any other matter : it may be re-
solved in a lawful assembly. "'For we are
in danger also to be accused for this day's
sedition : whereas there is no man guilty by
whom we may give an account of this con-
course. And when he had said these things,
he dismissed the assembly.

And after that the tumult was ceased,
Paul calling the disciples, and exhorting
them, took his leave, and set forward to go
into Macedonia. -And when he had walked
through those parts, and had exhorted them
witli much speech, he came to Greece :
•"■where when he had spent three months, the
Jews laid wait for him as he was about to
sail into Bj ria : and he had counsel to return
through _ Macedonia. 'And there lOOOm-
pnnied him Bostpater of Pyrrhus, of BercBt :
and of Thessalonians, Aristarchu9, and

cos, qui hujusmodi erant opifices, dixit: Viri, scitis
quia de hoc artificio est nobis acquisitio: et videtis, et 26
auditis quia non solum Ephesi, sed pene totius Asiae,
Paulus hie suadens avcrtit multam turbam, dicens:
Quoniam non sunt dii, qui manibus fiunt. Non solum 27
autem haec periclitabitur nobis pars in redargutionem
venire, sed et magnae Dianae templum in nihilum

tota Asia et orbis colit. His auditis, repleti sunt ira, 28
et exclamaverunt dicentes: Magna Diana Ephesiorum.
Et implcta est civitas confusione, et impetum feeerunt 29
uno animo in theatrum, rapto Gaio, et Aristarcho

intrare in populum, non permiserunt discipuli. Quidam 3 1
autem et de Asiae principibus, qui erant amici ejus,
miserunt ad cum rogantcs ne se daret in theatrum :
Alii autem aliud clamabant. Erat cnim Ecclesia 32
confusa : et plures ncsciebant qua ex causa convenis-
sent. De turba autem detraxerunt Alexandrum, pro- 33
pellentibus cum Judaeis. Alexander autem manu
silentio postulato, volebat reddere rationem populo.
Quern ut cognoverunt Judamm esse, vox facta una est 34
omnium, quasi per horas duas clamantium: Magna
Diana Ephesiorum. Et cum sedasset scriba turbas, 35
dixit : Viri Ephesii, quis enim est hominum, qui
nesciat Ephesiorum civitatem eultrieem esse magna)
Diame, Jovisque prolis ? Cum ergo his contradici 36
non possit, oportct vos sedatos esse, et nihil temere

5 These going before, stayed for us at Troas 1

6 but we sailed after the days of Azymes from
Pbilippi, and came to them unto Troas in
five days, where we abode seven days.

"And in the first of the Sabbath, when we
were assembled to break bread, Paul disputed
with them, being to depart on the morrow,
and he continued the sermon until midnight.
s And there were a great number of lamps in
the upper chamber where we were assembled.
9 And a certain young man named Eutychus,
sitting upon the window, whereas he was
oppressed with heavy sleep (Paul disputing
long) driven by sleep, fell from the third loft
down, and was taken up dead. luTo whom
when Paul was gone down, he lay upon him :
and embracing him he said, Be not troubled,
for his soul is in him. uAnd going up and
breaking bread and tasting, and having talked
sufficiently to them until daylight, so he
departed. n And they brought the lad alive,
and were not a little comforted.

13 But we going up into the ship, sailed to
Asson, from thence meaning- to receive Paul ;
for so he had ordained, himself purposing to
journey by land. u And when he had found
us in Asson, taking him with us we came to
Mitylene. uAnd sailing thence, the day
following we came over against Chios : and
the other day we arrived at Samos : and the
day following we came to Miletum. ""'For
Paid had purposed to sail leaving Ephesus,
lest any stay should be made him in Asia.
For he hastened, if it were possible for
him, to keep the day of Pentecost at Jeru-
salem.

being come to him, and assembled together,

yon shall tio more see my face all you, through
whom I have passed preaching the kingdom
of God. -6 Wherefore 1 take you to witness
this present dav that I am clear from the
blood of all. ^For I have not spared to
declare unto you all the counsel of God.
28 Take heed to yourselves and to the whole
ilock wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed
you bishops, to rule the Church of God
which he hath purchased with his own
blood. ^I know that after my departure
there will ravening wolves enter in among
you, not sparing the flock. a"And out of
your own selves shall arise men speaking
perverse things, to draw away disciples alter
themselves. 31 For the which cause be vigi-
lant, keeping in memory that for three years
night and day 1 ceased not with tears to
admonish every one of you. -^And now I
commend you to God and to the word of his
grace, who is able to edify, and to give in-
heritance in all the sanctified. fflNo man's
silver and gold or garment have 1 coveted.
•(4 Yourselves know that for such things as
were needful for me and them that are with
me, these hands have ministered. 3,I have
shewed you all things, that so labouring, you
must receive the weak, and remember the
word of our Lord Jesus, because he said. It
is a more blessed thing to give rather than to
take.

36 And when he had said these things,
falling on his knees ho prayed with all them.
'•'' And there was great weeping made of all,
and (ailing upon the neck of Paul they
kissed him, Bbeing sorry most of all for the
word which he had said, that they should
see his face no more. And they brought him
going unto the ship.

And when it came to pass that we sailed,
being carried from them, with a straight
course we came to Coos, and the day follow-
ing to Rhodes, and from thence to 1'atara.
'-'And when we had found a ship that passed
over to PhoBnice, going up into it we sailed.
3 And when we were m the sight of Cypres,
leaving it on the left hand, wc sailed into
Syria, and came to Tyre : for there the Bhip
was to discharge her load. 'And finding
disciples, we tamed there seven days: who
said to Paul by the Spirit, that he should not
go up to Jerusalem. "And the days being
expired, departing we went forward, all
bringing us on the way, with their wives and
children, till we were out of the cit\ : and
tailing upon our knees on the shore, we
prayed. *' And when we had bid one another

farewell we went up into the ship: and they
returned unto their own. "But we having
ended the navigation, from Tyre came down
to Ptolomais: and saluting the brethren, we

tarried one day with them. s And the next

day departing, we came to Cesaraa. And
entering into the house of Philip the Evan-
gelist, who was one of the seven, we tarried
with him. "And he had four daughters
virgins, that did prophesy.

io Et cum moraremur per dies aliquot, supervenit

1 1 quidam a Judaea proplieta, nomine Agabus. Is cum
venisset ad nos, tulit zonam Pauli: et alligans sibi
pedes et manus dixit : Hajc dicit Spiritus sanctus :
Virum, cujus est zona hasc, sic alligabunt in Jerusalem

12 Judaei, et tradent in manus Gentium. Quod cum
audissemus, rogabamus nos, et qui loci illius erant, ne

13 ascenderet Ierosolymam. Tunc respondit Paulus, et
dixit: Quid facitis flentes, et affligentes cor meum?
Eco enim non solum alligari, sed et mori in Jerusalem

14 paratus sum propter nomen Domini Jesu. Et cum ei
suadere non possemus, quievimus, dicentes: Domini
voluntas fiat.

15 Post dies autem istos praeparati ascendebamus in

nobiscum ad Jacobum, omnesque collecti sunt seniores.

19 Quos cum salutasset, narrabat per singula, quae Deus

20 fecisset in Gentibus per ministerium ipsius. At illi
cum audissent, magnificabant Deum, dixeruntque ei:
Vides, frater, quot millia sunt in Judaeis, qui credide-

10 And as we abode there for certain days,
there came a certain prophet from Jewrie,
named Agabus. uHe, when lie was come
to us, took Paul's girdle: and binding his
own hands and feet, he said, Thus saith the
holy Ghost : The man whose girdle this is,
so shall the Jews bind in Jerusalem, and
shall deliver him into the hands of the Gen-
tiles. u Which when we had heard, we and
they that were of the same place, desired
him that he would not go up to Jerusalem.
laThen Paul answered, and said, What do
you, weeping and afflicting my heart ? for I
am ready not only to be bound, but to die
also in Jerusalem for the name of our Lord
Jesus. 14And when we could not persuade
him, we ceased, saying, The will of our Lord
be done.

15 And after these days, being prepared, we
went up to Jerusalem. 16And there came
also of the disciples from Ccesarea with us,
bringing with them one Jason a Cyprian
(with whom we should lodge), an old disciple.
17 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the
brethren received us gladly. 13 And the day
following Paul went in with us to James,
and all the Ancients were assembled.
19 Whom when lie had saluted, he told par-
ticularly what God had done among the
Gentiles by his ministry. 2,'But they hear-
ing it, magnified God, and said to him : Thou
seest (brother) how many thousands there
are among the Jews that have believed : and
all are zealators of the Law. -1 But they
have heard of thee that thou dost teach
those Jews that are among the Gentiles, to
depart from Moyses : saying that they ought
not to circumcise their children, nor walk
according to the custom. a What is it then ?
needs must the multitude assemble : for they
will hear that thou art come. 2iDo this
therefore which we tell thee. There are
with us four men, that have a vow on them.
-* Taking these unto thee, sanctify thyself
with them: and bestow on them, that they
may shave their heads : and all shall know
that the things which they heard of thee, are
false: but that thyself also walkest keeping
the Law. ^Hut concerning them that believe
of the Gentiles, we have written, decreeing
that they should refrain themselves from the
immolated to idols, and blood, and Buffo-

that Paul had brought into the temple.)

were shut. 31 And as they sought to kill him.

Jerusalem is in a confusion. ® Who forth-
with taking unto him soldiers and Centurions,
ran down to them. Who, when they had
seen the Tribune and the soldiers, ceased
to strike Paul. ^Tlien the Tribune coming
near apprehended him, and commanded him
to be bound with two chains : and he de-
manded who he was, and what he had done.

34 And some cried one thing, some another,
in the multitude. And whereas he could
not know the certainty for the tumult, he
commanded him to be led into the castle.

35 And when he was come to the stairs, it
chanced that he was carried of the soldiers
because of the violence of the peoole. x For
the multitude of the people followed, crying,
Away with him. 37 And when Paul began to
be brought into the castle, he saith to the
Tribune, Is it lawful for me to speak some
thing to thee ? Who said, Canst thou speak
Greek ? ^ Art not thou the /Egyptian that
before these days did raise a tumult, and
didst lead forth into the desert four thousand
men that were murderers ? 3J And Paul said
to him, 1 am a man truly a Jew of Tarsus,
a citizen not of an obscure city of Cilicia.
And 1 desire thee, permit me to 6peak to the
people. •"• And when he had permitted him,
Paul standing on the stairs, beckoned with
his hand to the people; and great silence
being made, he spake unto them in the
Hebrew tongue, saying,

Men, brethren, and fathers, hear what ac-
count I do render now unto you. 2(And
when they had heard that he spake to them
in the Hebrew tongue, they did the more
keep silence. 3 And he saith), I am a man a
Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought
up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel in-
structed according to the verity of the law of
the fathers, an emulator of the Law ns also
all you are this day: 4 who persecuted this
way unto death, binding and delivering into
custodies men and women, 5as the high
Priest doth give mo testimony, and all the
ancients; fiof whom receiving letters also
to the brethren, I went to Damascus, that I
might bring them thence bound to Jerusalem,
to be punished. 7 And it came to pass as I
was going, and drawing nigh to Damascus
at midday, suddenly from heaven there shone
round about me mucli light: 3and (ailing
on tlu> ground, 1 heard a voice saying to me.
Said, Saul, why persecutest thou me? y Ami

I answered. Who art thou, Lord? And he
said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom
thou perseouteat, 10And they that were
with me, saw the light indeed, but the voice
they heard not of him that spake with me.

Paulus. Commotaque est civitas tota, et facta est 30
concursio populi. Et apprehendentes Paulum, trahe-
bant eum extra templum: et statim clausal sunt januae.
Quaerentibus autem eum occidere, nunciatum est tri- 3 1
buno cohortis: Quia tota confunditur Jerusalem. Qui 32
statim assumptis militibus et centurionibus, decurrit

apprehendit eum, et jussit eum alligari catenis duabus:
et interrogabat quis esset, et quid fecisset. Alii autem 34
aliud clamabant in turba. Et cum non posset certum
cognoscere pras tumultu, jussit duci eum in castra.
Et cum venisset ad gradus, contigit ut portaretur a 35
militibus propter vim populi. Sequebatur enim mul- 36

tu es ^Egyptius, qui ante hos dies tumultum concitasti,

municeps. Rogo autem te, permitte mini loqui ad
populum. Et cum ille permisisset, Paulus stans in 40
gradibus, annuit manu ad plebem, et magno silentio
facto, allocutus est lingua Ilebnea, dicens :

Viri fratres, et patres, audite quam ad vos nunc 22
reddo rationem. Cum audissent autem quia Hebraea 2

our Lord said to me, Arise, and go to Da-
mascus : and there it shall be told thee of
all things that thou must do. B And whereas
I did not see for the brightness of that light,
being led of my companions by the hand, I
came to Damascus. 13And one Ananias, a
man according to the Law having testimony
of all the Jews inhabitants, "coming to me,
and standing by me. said to me, Brother Saul,
look up. And I the self-same hour looked
up on him. uBut he said, The God of our
fathers hath preordained thee, that thou
shouldest know his will, and see the Just one,
and hear a voice from his mouth : 16 because
thou shalt be his witness to all men, of those
things which thou hast seen and heard.
17 And now what tarriest thou ? Rise up, and
be baptized, and wash away thy sins invo-
eating his name. 18 And it befel me returning
into Jerusalem, and praying in the temple,
that I was in a trance, wand saw him saying
unto me, Make haste, and depart quickly out
of Jerusalem: because they will not receive
thy testimony of me. 20And I said, Lord,
they know that I did cast into prison and
beat in every synagogue them that believed
in thee. 21And when the blood of Steven
thy witness was shed, I stood by and con-
sented, and kept the garments of them that
killed him. ^And he said to me. Go, for
into the Gentiles afar will I send thee.

rJi And they heard him until this word, and
they lifted up their voice, saying. Away with
such an one from the earth : for it is not
meet he should live. -4 And when they cried
out, and threw off their garments, and cast
dust into the air, the Tribune commanded
him to be carried into the castle, and to be
beaten with whips, and that he should be
tormented : to know for what cause they did
so cry at him. is And when they had bound
him very straight with thongs, Paul saith to
the Centurion standing by him : Is it lawful
for you to whip a man that is a Roman, and
uncondemned ? -''Which the Centurion
In ai'ing, went to the Tribune, and told him,
saying, What wilt thou do? for this man is
a citizen of Rome. '-7And the Tribune
coming, said to him, Tell me, art thou a
Roman? But he said, Yea. '-"'And the
Tribune answered, I obtained this city with
a great sum. And 1'anl laid, lint I «ra

Men brethren, I with all good conscience
have conversed before God, until this present
day. 2And the high Priest Ananias com-
manded them that stood by him, to smite
him on the mouth. 3 Then Paul said to him,
God shall strike thee, thou whited wall.
And thou sitting judgest me according to
the law, and contrary to law doest thou com-
mand me to be smitten ? 4 And they that
stood by, said, Dost thou revile the high
Priest of God ? 6 And Paul said, I knew not,
brethren, that he is the high Priest. For it is
written : The pruice of thy people thou shalt
not misspeak. 6 And Paul knowing that the
one part was of Sadducees, and the other of
Pharisees, he cried out in the Council, Men
brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Phari-
sees : of the hope and resurrection of the dead
am I judged. 7And when he had said
these things, there rose dissension between
the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the multi-
tude was divided. "For the Sadducees say
there is no resurrection, nor Angel, nor
spirit : but the Pharisees confess both. s And
there was made a great cry. And certain of
the Pharisees rising up, strove, saying, We
find no evil in this man : what it a spirit hath
spoken to him, or an Angel ? 10 And when
there was risen great dissension, the Tribune
fearing lest Paul should be torn in pieces by
them, commanded the soldiers to go down,
and to take him out of the midst of them,
and to bring him into the castle. u And the
night following, our Lord standing by him,
said, Be constant: for as thou hast testified
of me in Jerusalem, so must thou testify at
Rome also.

12 And when clay was come, certain of the
Jews gat hered themselves together.and vowed
themselves, Baying, that they would neither
eat nor drink till they killed Paul. 13And
they were more than forty men that had
made this conspiracy: 14who came to the
chief priests and the ancient?, and said, By
execration we have vowed ourselves, that we
will eat nothing, till we kill Paul. 15Now
therefore give you knowledge to the Tribune
with the Council, that he bring him forth to
you, as if you meant to know some more cer-
tainty touching him. But we, before he
come near, are ready for to kill him. li Which
when Paul's sister's son had heard, of their
lying in wait, he came and entered into the
castleand told Paul. ''And Paul calling to
him one of the Centurions, said, Bring thia
young man to the Tribune, ior he hath some-
thing to tell him. lsAnd he taking him,
brought him to the Tribune, nDd said. The
prisoner Paul desired me to bring this young
man unto thee, having something to say to
thee. ,,J And the Tribune, taking him by the
hand, went aside with him apart, and asked
him, What is it that thou hast to tell mef
20 And lie said. The Jews have agreed to
desire thee, that tomorrow thou wilt bring
forth Paul into the Council, as though they

fratres, ego omni conscientia bona conversatus sum
ante Deum usque in hodiernum diem. Princeps autem 2
sacerdotum Ananias praecepit astantibus sibi percutere
os ejus. Tunc Paulus dixit ad eum : Percutiet te 3
Deus, paries dealbate. Et tu sedens judicas me secun-
dum legem, et contra legem jubes me percuti? Et 4
qui astabant dixerunt: Summum sacerdotem Dei male-
dicis? Dixit autem Paulus: Nesciebam, fratres, quia 5
princeps est sacerdotum, Scriptum est enim: Principem
populi tui non maledices. ociens autem Paulus quia 6
una pars esset Sadducaeorum, et altera Pharisaeorum,
exclamavit in concilio : Viri fratres, ego Pharisaeus sum,
filius Pharisaeorum, de spe et resurrectione mortuorum
ego judicor. Et cum haec dixisset, facta est dissensio 7
inter Pharisaeos et Sadducaeos, et soluta est multitude
Sadducasi enim dicunt, non esse resurrectionem, neque 8
Angelum, neque Spiritum: Pharisaei autem utraque
confkentur. Factus est autem clamor magnus. Et 9
surgentes quidam Pharisaeorum, pugnabant, dicentes:
Nihil mali invenimus in homine isto: quid si Spiritus
locutus est ei, aut Angelus ? Et cum magna dissensio 10
facta esset, timens tribunus ne discerperetur Paulus ab
ipsis, jussit milites descendere, et rapere eum de medio
eorum, ac deducere eum in castra. Sequenti autem 1 1
nocte assistens ei Dominus, ait: Constans esto: sicut
enim testificatus es de me in Jerusalem, sic te oportet
et Roma; testificari.

Facta autem die collegerunt se quidam ex Judais, 1 2
et devoverunt se dicentes, neque manducaturos, neque
bibituros, donee occiderent Paulum. Erant autem 13
plus quam quadraginta viri, qui banc conjurationem
fecerant: Qui accesscrunt ad principes sacerdotum, et 14
seniores, et dixerunt: Dcvotione devovimus nos nihil
gustaturos, donee occidamus Paulum. Nunc ergo vos 15
notum facite tribuno cum concilio, ut producat ilium
ad vos, tamquam aliquid ccrtius cognituri de eo. Nos
vero prius quam appropiet, parati sur.ius interficere
ilium. Quod cum audisset filius sororis Pauli insidias, 16
venit, et intravit in castra, nunciavitque Paulo. Vocans 1 7
autem Paulus ad se unum ex centurionibus, ait:
Adolescentem hunc perdue ad tribunum, habet enim
aliquid indicare illi. Et ille quidem assumens eum 18
duxit ad tribunum, et ait: Vinctus Paulus rogavit me
hunc adolescentem perduccre ad te, habentem aliquid
loqui tibi. Apprenendens autem tribunus mamim 19
illius, sccessit cum co scorsum, et intcrrogavit ilium:
Quid est, quod habes indicare mihi ? Ille autem dixit: 20
Judans con venit rogarc te, ut crastina die producas

Paulum in concilium, quasi aliquid certius inquisituri

21 sint de illo: Tu vero ne credideris illis, insidiantur
enim ei ex eis viri amplius quam quadraginta, qui se
devoverunt non manducare, neque bibere donee interfi-
ciant eum : et nunc parati sunt, expectantes promissum

22 tuum. Tribunus igitur dimisit adolescentem, praeci-
piens ne cui loqueretur quoniam haec nota sibi fecisset.

23 Et vocatis duobus centurionibus, dixit illis: Parate
milites ducentos ut eant usque Caesaream, et equites
septuaginta, et lancearios ducentos a tertia liora noctis:

24 Et jumenta praeparate ut imponentes Paulum salvum

25 perducerent ad Felicem praesidem. (Timuit enim ne
forte raperent eum Judaei, et occiderent, et ipse postea
calumniam sustineret, tamquam accepturus pecuniam).

26 Scribens epistolam continentem haec:

meant to inquire some more certainty touch-
ing him. 21But do not thou credit them,
for there lie in wait for him more than forty
men of them, which have vowed neither to
eat nor to drink till they kill him : and they
are now ready, expecting thy promise. a The
Tribune therefore dismissed the young man,
commanding that he should speak to no man
that he had notified these tilings unto him.
23 And calling two Centurions, he said to
them, Make ready two hundred soldiers, to
go as far as Ccesarea, and seventy horsemen,
and lances two hundred, from the third hour
of the night ; i4 and prepare beasts, that
setting Paul on, they might bring him safe
to Felix the President. -b (For he feared lest
perhaps the Jews might take him away, and
Kill him, and himself afterward should sus-
tain reproach, as though he would have taken
money) * writing a letter containing this
much :

Claudius Lysias to the most excellent
President Felix, greeting. "7 This man being
apprehended of the Jews, and ready to be
killed of them, I coming in with the band
delivered him, understanding that he is a
Roman: ^and meaning to know the cause
that they objected unto him, I brought him
down into their Council. 29 Whom I found
to be accused concerning questions of their
law : but having no crime worthy of death
or of bands. ^ And when it was told me of
embushments that they had prepared against
him, I sent him to thee, signifying also to the
accusers, to speak before thee. Farewell.
31 And the soldiers according as it was com-
manded them, taking Paul, brought him by
night to Antinatris. ^And the next day
sending away the horsemen to go with him,
they returned to the castle. ;,3Who when
they were come to Coesarea.and had delivered
the letter to the President, they did set Paul
also before him. ^And when he had read,
and had asked of what province lie was : and
understanding that of Cilicia: 35I will hear
thee, said he, when thy accusers are come.
And lie commanded him to bekeptin Herod's
palace.

And after five days the high priest Ananias
descended, with certain ancients and one
Tertullus an orator, who went to the Pre-
sident against Paul. s And Paul being cited,
Tertullus began to accuse, saying,

Whereas we live in much peace by thee,
and many things arc corrected by thy pro*
videnoe: 3 tra do always and in all places
receive it, most excellent Felix, with all
thanksgiving. *Bu1 last 1 hinder thee any

coming in, with great force took him away
out of our hands, 8 commanding his accusers
to come to thee, of whom thou mayest, thy-
self judging, understand of all these things,
whereof we accuse him. 9 And the Jews also
added, saying that these things were 80.

I0But Paul answered, (the President making
a sign unto him for to speak :)

Knowing that of many years thou art judge
over this nation, I will with good courage
answer for myself. n For thou mayest under-
stand that it is not above twelve days to me,
since I went up to adore in Jerusalem ; '-and
neither in the temple did they find me dis-
puting witli any man, or causing concourse
of the multitude, neither in the synagogues,
nor in the city: u neither can they prove
unto thee the things whereof they now ac-
cuse me. 14But this I confess to thee, that
according to the sect, which they call heresy,
I do so serve the father my God, believing
all things that are written in the Law and
the Prophets : B having hope in God, the
which these also themselves expect, that
there shall be a resurrection of just and un-
just. u In this myself also do study to have
a conscience without offence toward God and
toward men always. 17And after many
years I came to bestow alms upon my na-
tion, and oblations, and vows. 18In the
which they found me purified in the temple :
not with multitude nor with tumult. ,9But
certain Jews of Asia, who ought to be present
before thee and to accuse, if they had any-
thing against me : fflor let these men them-
selves say, if they have found in me any
iniquity, forasmuch as I stand in the Council,
21 but. of this one voice only that I cried
standing among them, That of the resurrec-
tion of the dead am I judged this day of you.
23 And Felix deferred them, knowing most
certainly of this way, saying, When Lysias
the Tribune is come down, I will hear you.
23 And he commanded the Centurion to keep
him, and that he should have rest, neither to
prohibit any of his to minister unto him.

21 And after some days, Felix coming with
Drusilla his wife, which was a Jew, called Paul,
and heard of him the faith that is in Christ
Jesus. a And he disputing of justice and
chastity, and of the judgment to come, Felix
being terrified, answered, For this time go thy
way : but in time convenient I will send for
thee : 2li hoping also withal, that money would
be given him of Paul, for the which cause also
oftentimes sending for him, he spake with
him. 2" But when two years were ended,
Felix had a successor Fortius Festus. And
Felix being willing to shew the Jews a plea-
sure, left Paul in prison.

Festus therefore when he was come into
the province, after three days went | up to
Jerusalem from Csssarea. '-'And the chief
priests and principal men of the Jews went
unto him against Paul: and they desired
him, 3 requesting favour against him, that lie

quia non plus sunt milii dies quam duodecim, ex quo

Post aliquot autem dies veniens Felix cum Drussilla 24
uxore sua, quae erat Judfea, vocavit Paulum, et audivit
ab eo fidem, quae est in Christum Jesum. Disputante 25
autem illo de justitia, et castitatc, et de judicio futuro,
tremefactus Felix respondit: Quod nunc attinet, vade:
tempore autem opportuno accersam te: simul et 26
sperans, quod pecunia ei darctur a Paulo, propter
quod et frequenter accersens cum, loquebatur cum eo.
Biennio autem expleto, acccpit successorem Felix 27
Portium Festum. Volcns autem gratiam prsestare
Judsia Felix, reliquit Paulum vinctuin.

Festus ergo cum venisset in provinciam, post tri- 25
duum ascendit Ierosolymam a Ca^sarca. Adieruntque 2

adversus eum. ut juberet perduci eum in Jerusalem,

4 insidias tendentes ut interfieerent eura in via. Festus
autem respondit servari Paulum in Caesarea : se autem

5 maturius profecturum. Qui ergo in vobis (ait) potentes
sunt, descendentes simul, si quod est in viro crimen,
accusent eum.

6 Demoratus autem inter eos dies non amplius quam
octo aut decern, descendit Caesareara, et altera die seditpro

7 tribunali, et jussit Paulum adduci. Qui cum perductus
esset circumsteterunt eum, qui ab Ierosolyma descen-
derant Judoei, multas et graves causas objicientes, quas

8 non poterant probare, Paulo rationem reddente : Quo-
niam ncque in legem Judaeorum, neque in templum,

9 neque in Caesarem quid quarapeccavi. Festus autem
volens gratiam praestare Judseis, respondens Paulo,
dixit: Yis Ierosolymam ascendere, et ibi de hisjudicari

10 apud me ? Dixit autem Paulus: Ad tribunal Caesaris
sto, ibi me oportet judicari: Judaeis non nocui, sicut

1 1 tu melius nosti. Si enim nocui, aut dignum morte
aliquid feci, non recuso mori: si vero nihil est eorum,
quas hi accusant me, nemo potest me illis donare.

1 2 Caesarem appello. Tunc Festus cum concilio locutus,
respondit: Caesarem appellasti ? ad Cassarem ibis.

13 Et cum dies aliquot transacti essent, Agrippa rex et
Bernice descenderunt Csesaream ad salutandum Festum.

14 Et cum dies plures ibi demorarentur, Festus regi
indicavit de Paulo> dicens: Vir quidam est dcrelictus

15 a Felice vinctus, de quo cum essem Ierosolymis,
adierunt me principes sacerdotum, et seniores Judae-

would command him to be brought to Jeru-
salem, laying wait for to kill him in the way.
4 But Festus answered, that Paul is in
Caesarea ; and that he would very shortly go
thither. 5They therefore, saith he, that are
of ability among you, going down with me, if
there be any crime in the man, let them ac-
cuse him.

6 And having tarried among them not above
eight or ten days, he went down to_ Caesarea,
and the next day he sate in the judgment
seat : and he commanded Paul to be brought.
< Who being brought, there stood about him
the Jews that were come down from Jeru-
salem, objecting many and grievous causes
which they could not prove; 8 Paul making
answer, That neither against the law of the
Jews, nor against the temple, nor against
Caesar have I anything offended. 9But
Fe8tu9 willing to shew the Jews a pleasure,
answering Paul, said, Wilt thou go up to
Jerusalem, and there be judged of these
things before me? 10 And Paul said, .At
Caesar's judgment seat do I stand, whore 1
ought to be judged : the Jews I have not
hurt, as thou very well knowest. u For if
I have hurt them, or done anything worthy
of death, I refuse not to die; but if none of
those things be, whereof these accuse me.
no man can give me to them. I appeal to
Caesar. ,2 Then Festus having conferred with
the Council, answered, Hast thou appealed
to Caesar ? to Caesar shalt thou go.

13 And when certain days were passed, king
Agrippa and Bernice came down to Caesarea
to salute Festus. "And as they tarried there
a good many days, Festus signified to the
king, of Paul, saying, A certain person was
left prisoner by Felix. 15 concerning whom,
when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests
and the ancients of the Jews came unto me,
desiring condemnation against him. "To
whom 1 answered. That it is not the Romans'
custom to yield up any man before that he
which is accused have his accusers present,
and take place to make his answer for to
clear himself of the crimes. 1? When they
therefore were assembled hither, without
any delay, the day following, sitting in the
judgment seat, I commanded the man to bo
brought. lsOf whom, when the accusers
stood up, they brought no cause whu-li I
tin. unlit ill of: 19but certain questions of
their own superstition they had against him,
and of one Jesus, deceased, whom Paul
affirmed to live. '-'" Doubling therefore of
this kind of question, I said, whether he
would go to Jerusalem, and there be Judged
of thc«c things. '•' I5ut Paul appealing to

entered into the hall of audience with the Tri-
bunes and principal men of the city, atFestus'
commandment Paul was brought. 24And
Festua saith, King Agrippa, and all ye men
that are present together with us, you see
this man, concerning whom all the multi-
tude of the Jews called upon meat Jerusalem,
requesting and crying out that he ought not
to live any longer. ^ Yet have I found no-
thing that he hath committed worthy of
death. \Bnt forasmuch as he himself appealed
to Augustus, I have determined to send linn.
^ Of whom what, to write for certainty to my
lord, 1 have not. For the which cause I
have brought him forth to you, and especially
to thee, king Agrippa, that examination being
made, 1 may have what to write. 27 For it
seemeth to me without reason, to send a pri-
Boner, and not to signify his causes.

But Agrippa said to Paul, thou art per-
mitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul
stretching forth his hand, begaD to make his

2 Touching all things whereof lam accused
of the .lews, king Agrippa, I account myself
happy for that I am to defend myself this
day before thee, 3 especially whereas thou
knowest all things that are among the Jews,
customs and questions : for the which cause
1 beseech thee, hear me patiently. 4 Anrl my
life truly from my youth, which was from
the beginning in my nation in Jerusalem, all
the Jews do know : 5 knowing me before
from the beginning (if they will give testi-
mony) that according to the most sure sect
of our religion I lived a Pharisee. 6 And now
for I he hope of the promise that was made of
God to our f»t hers, do I stand subject to
judgment; 'the which our twelve tribes
serving night and day, hope to come unto.
Of the which hope, (> king, 1 am accused of
the Jews. 8 What incredible thing is it
judged with yon, if God raise tho dead?
'■ And myself truly had thought that I ought
to do against the name of Jesus of Nazareth
many contrary tilings. 10 Which also 1 did
at Jerusalem, and mini > of the smuts did I
shut up in prisons, having received authority
of the chiet priests : and when they were put
to death, I brought the sentence. "And
throughout all the synagogues oftentimes
punishing them, I compelled them to blas-
pheme : and yet more mud ■gainst them, 1
persecuted them even unto foreign cities.
'-' Among which things whiles I went to
Damascus with authority and permission of
the chief priests, 13nt midday, in the way, I
saw (Oking) from heaven a light to have
slimed round about me and them that were
in company with me, above the brigliti
the sun. " And when all we were fallen down
on the ground, 1 heard a voice speaking to
me in the Hebrew tongue: Saul, SauL why
lersecutest thou me ? It ishnrdforti
ick against the prick. "And I said, \\ ho

tribunis, et viris principalibus civitatis, jubente Festo,
adductus est Paulus. Et dicit Festus: Agrippa rex, 24
et omnes, quisimul adestis nobiscum viri, videtis hunc,
de quo omnis multitudo Judreorum interpellavit me
Ierosolymis, petentes et acclamantes non oportere eum
vivcrc amplius. Ego vero comperi nihil dignum 25
morte cum admisisse. Ipso autem hoc appellante ad
Augustum, judicavi mittcre. De quo quid certum 26

eum ad vos, et maxime ad tc, rex Agrippa, ut interro-
gatione facta habeam quid scribam. Sine ratione 27
enim mihi videtur mittere vinctum, et causas ejus non
significare.

Agrippa vero ad Paulum ait : Permittitur tibi loqui 26
pro temetipso. Tunc Paulus extents manu ccepit
rationem reddere.

De omnibus, quibus accusor a Judaeis, rex Agrippa, 2

oculos eorum, ut convertantur a tenebris ad lucem, et
de potestate satanag ad Deum, ut accipiant remissionem
peccatorum, et sortem inter sanctos per fidem, quae est

19 in me. Unde, rex Agrippa, non fui incredulus ccelesti
20visioni: sed his, qui sunt Damasci primum, et Iero-

solymis, et in omnem regionem Judaeae, et Gentibus
annunciabam, ut pcenitentiam agerent, et conver-
terentur ad Deum, digna pcenitentiae opera facientes.

21 Hac ex causa me Judaei, cum essem in templo, com-

22 prehensum tentabant interficere. Auxilio autem ad-
jutus Dei usque in hodiernum diem sto, testificans
minori atque majori, nihil extra dicens quam ea, quae

23 Prophetae locuti sunt futura esse, et Moyses, si passibilis
Christus, si primus ex resurrectionc mortuorum, lumen
annunciaturus est populo, et Gentibus.

24 Haec loquente eo et rationem reddente, Festus
magna voce dixit: Insanis, Paule: multae te litterae

insaniam convertunt. Et Paulus: Non insanio
(inquit), optime Feste, sed veritatis, et sobrietatis

26 verba loquor. Scit enim de his rex, ad quern et con-
stanter loquor: latere enim eum nihil horum arbitror.
Neqpe enim in angulo quidquam hcrum gestum est.

27 Credis, rex Agrippa, prophetis? Scio quia credis.

28 Agrippa autem ad Paulum: In modico suades me

29 Chri-tianum fieri. Et Paulus: Opto apud Deum, et
in modico, et in magno, non tantum te, sed etiam
omnes, qui audiunt, hodie fieri tales, qualis et ego

30 sum, exceptis vinculis his. Et exsurrcxit rex, et

may ordain thee a minister and witness of
those things which thou hast seen, and of
those things wherein I will appear to thee ;
17 delivering thee out of the peoples and
nations unto the which now I send thee, 18 to
open their eyes, that they may be converted
from darkness to light, and from the power
of Satan to God, that they may receive re-
mission of sins, and lot among the saints by
the faith that is in me. 19 Whereupon, king
Agrippa, I was not incredulous to the hea-
venly vision ; w but to them first that are at
Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and unto all
the country of Jewry, and to the Gentiles
did I preach that they should do penance,
and turn to God, doing works worthy of
penance. 21For this cause the Jews, when I
was in the temple, apprehending me, at-
tempted, meaning to kill me. —But aided
by the help of God, I stand until this day,
testifying to small and to great, saying
nothing beside those things which the
Prophets did speak should come to pass,
and Moyses, ^if Christ were passible, if the
first of the resurrection from the dead, he
were to shew light to the people and to the
Gentiles.

24 As he spake these tilings and made his
answer, Festus with a loud voice said, Thou
art mad, Paul : much learning turneth thee
to madness. ^And Paul said, I am not
mad, most excellent Festus : 'but I speak
words of verity and sobriety : -6for the king
knoweth of these things, to whom also 1
speak constantly; fori think none of these
things to be unknown to him. For neither
was any of these things done in a corner.
27 Believest thou the prophets, king Agrippa?
I know that thou believest. M And Agrippa
said to Paul : A little thou persuadest me to
become a Christian. ^ And Paul said, I wish
of God, both in little and in much, not only
thee, but also all that hear this day, to
become such as I am also, except theso
bands. ^And the king rose up, and the
President, and Bernice, and they that sat by
them. 31 And going aside, they spake among
themselves, saying, That this man hath done
nothing worthy of death or bands. :'-' Lnd
Agrippa said to Festus, This man might be
released, if he had not appealed to Ca-sar.

And after it was decreed that he should
sail into Italy, and that Paul with other
prisoners should be delivered to a Centurion
named Julius, of the hand August a,';' we going

up into a ship of Adrumetum, beginning to
sail about the placet of Aaia, looted from tlie

ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed
us into it. "And wliereas many days we
sailed slowly, and were scarce come over
against Gnidus, the wind hindering us, we
sailed near Crete by Salmone: 8and with
much ado sailing by it, we came into a cer-
tain place that is called Good-havens, nigh
to the which was a city Thalassa.

9 And when much time was spent, and
whereas now it was not safe sailing, because
the fut now was past, Paul comforted them,
10 saying to them, Ye men, I see that the
sailing beginneth to be with hurt and much
damage not only of the lading and the ship,
but also of our lives. u But the Centurion
believed the governor and master of the ship,
more than those things which were said of
Paul. V2 And whereas it was not a com-
modious haven to winter in, very many taking
counsel appointed to sail theme, if by any
means they might, coming to Phceniee, win-
ter there, a haven of Crete, looking toward
the Alrike and the Chore. uAnd the south
■wind blowing, they thinking that they had
obtained their purpose, when they had parted
from Asson, sailed along by Crete. u Hut
not long after, a tempestuous wind that is
called Euro-aquilo, drove against it. 15 And
when the ship was caught, and could not
make way against the wind, giving up the
ship to the winds, we were driven. '"And
running upon a certain island, tliat is called
Cauda, we could scarce get the cock-boat.
17 Which being taken up, they used helps,
girding the ship, and fearing lest they should
fall into the Syrtc, letting down the vessel,
so were they carried. HAnd when we were
mightily tossed with the tempest, the next
day they cast forth : l9and the third da; with
their own hands they threw forth the tack-
lings of the ship, -""And neither sun, nor
stars appearing lor many days, and no small
storm being toward, all hope was now taken
away of our saving.

-'And when there had been long fasting,
then Paul, standing in the midst of them,
said, You should indeed, 0 ye men, have
heard me, and not have parted from ( 'ivte,
and have gained this hurt and loss. -And
now I exhort you to be of good cheer; for
there shall be no loss of any soul ainom: \"i',
but of the ship. 2'For an Angel of the God
whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me
this night, "* saving, Fear not Paul, thou
must appear before Cn-sar: and behold God
iiatli given thee all that sail with thee. I
the which cause be of good cheer, ye men :
for 1 believe God, that it shall so be, U it
hath been said to me. -r' And we must conic
unto a certain island. 2'"But after the four-
teenth night was come on us as we were
sailing in Adria about midnight, the shipmen

deemed that there appeared tome country to

them. "Whoalaa sounding, found twenty
fathoms: and being parted a little from

venissemus contra Gnidum, prohibente nos vento,
adnavigavimus Cretan, juxta Salmonem: et vix juxta8
navigantes, venimus in locum quendam, qui vocatur
Boniportus, cui juxta erat ci vitas Thalassa.

Alulto autem tempore peracto, et cum jam non esset 9
tuta navigatio, co quod et jejunium jam pneteriisset,
consolabatur eos Paulus, dicens eis : Viri, video 10
quoniam cum injuria et multo damno, non solum
oneris et navis, sed etiam animarum nostrarum incipit
esse navigatio. Centurio autem gubernatori et nau- 1 1
clero magis credebat, quam his, qua? a Paulo dicc-
bantur. Et cum aptus portus non esset ad hiemanduin, 1 2
plurimi statuerunt consilium navigare inde, si quo-
modo possent, devenicntes Phoenicen, hiemare, portum
Cretae respicientem ad Africum et ad Corum. Aspi- 13
rante autem Austro, aestimantes propositum se tenere,
cum sustulissent de Asson, legebant Cretam. Non 14
post multum autem misit se contra ipsam ventus
Typhonicus, qui vocatur Euroaquilo. Cumque arrcpta 1 5
esset navis, et non posset conari in ventum, data nave
flatibus, fcrebamur. In insulam autem quandam 16
decurrentes, qutc vocatur Cauda, potuimus vix obti-
nere scapham. Qua sublata, adjutoriis atebantur, 17
accingentes navcm, timentes ne in Syrtim inciderent,
summisso vase sic fcrebantur. Vallda autem nobis 18
tempestate jactatis, sequenti die jactum fecerunt: et 19
tertia die suis manibus armaments navis projecerunt.
Neque autem sole nequc sidcribus apparentibus per 20
plurcs dies, et tempestate non exigua immincntc, jam
ablata erat spes omnis salutis nostne.

Et cum multa jejunatio fuisset, tunc stans Paulus 2 \
in medio eorum, dixit : Oportebat quidem, 0 viri,
audito me, non tollere a ('rota, luerique faccre injuriam
banc et jacturam. Et nunc suadco vobis bono animo 22
esse: amissio enim nulliua aninue exit ex vobis, pneter-
quam navis. Astitit enim mihi hac noctc Angelu-

Deus omnes, qui navigant tecum. Propter quod bono 25

admodum dictum est mihi. In insulam autem
quandam oportet nos devenire. Sed postea quam 27
quartadecima nos snpervenit, navigantibus nobis in

30 tentes anchoras quattuor, optabant diem fieri. Nautis
vero quaerentibus fugere de navi, cum misissent
scapham in mare, sub obtentu quasi inciperent a prora

31 anchoras extendere, dixit Paulus Centurioni et mili-
tibus: Nisi hi in navi manserint, vos salvi fieri non

32 potestis. Tunc absciderunt milites funes scaphae, et
passi sunt earn excidere.

33 Et cum lux inciperet fieri, rogabat Paulus omnes
sumere cibum, dicens: Quartadeeima die hodie expec-

34 tantes jejuni permanetis, nihil accipientes. Propter
quod rogo vos accipere cibum pro salute vestra : quia

35 nullius vestrum capillus de capite peribit. Et cum
haec dixisset, sumens panem, gratias egit Deo in con-
spectu omnium: et cum fregisset, coepit manducare.

36 Anima?quiores autem facti omnes, et ipsi sumpserunt

37 cibum. Eramus vero universal aninioe in navi ducentre

38 septuaginta sex. Et satiati cibo alleviabant navem,
39jactantes triticum in mare. Cum autem dies factus

esset, terram non agnoscebant: sinum vero quendam
considerabant habentem littus, in quern cogitabant, si

40 possent, ejicere navem. Et cum anchoras sustulissent,
committebant se mari, simul laxantes juncturas guber-
naculorum : et levato artemone secundum aurae flatum

41 tendebant ad littus. Et cum incidissemus in locum
dithalassum, impegerunt navem : et prora quidem fixa
manebat immobilis, puppis vero solvebatur a vi maris.

42 Militum autem consilium fuit ut custodias occiderent:

43 nequis cum enatasset, effugeret. Centurio autem
volens servare Paulum, prohibuit fieri: jussitque cos,
qui possent natare, emittere se primos, et evadere, et

44 ad torram exire: et ceteros alios in tabulis ferebant,

thence, theyfound fifteen fathoms. *9And fear-
ing lestweshould fallintoroughplace9, easting
out of the stern four anchors, they wished
that day were come. 30 But as the shipmen
sought to flee out of the ship, having let
down the cock-boat into the sea, pretending
as if they were about to cast out anchors out
of the fore part of the ship, 31Paul said to the
Centurion and to the soldiers, Unless these
tarry in the ship, you cannot be saved. ffi Then
the soldiers cut off the ropes of the cock-
boat : and suffered it to fall away.

33 And when it began to be light, Paul
desired all to take meat, saying, This day is
the fourteenth day that you expect and remain
fasting, taking nothing. 3,For the which
cause I desire you to take meat for your
health sake : _ for there shall not an hair of
the head perish of any of you. K And when
he had said these things, taking bread, he
gave thanks to God in the sight of them all :
and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
36 And being all made of better cheer, they
also took meat. 3? And we were in all in the
ship, souls two hundred 6eventy-six. ^And
being filled with meat, they lighted the ship,
casting the wheat into the sea. 33 And when
day was come, they knew not the land : but
they spied a certain creek that had a shore,
into the which they minded, if they could, to
cast a land the ship. m And when they had
taken up the anchors, they committed them-
selves to the sea, loosing withal the rudder
bands: and hoisting up the mainsail ac-
cording as the wind blew, they went on
toward the shore. 41And when we were
fallen into a place between two seas, they
gravelled the ship: and the forepart truly
sticking fast remained unmovable : but the
hinder part was broken by the violence of
the sea. ^And the counsel of the soldiers
was, that they should kill the prisoners:
lest any swimming out, might run away.
43 But the Centurion, willing to save Paul,
forbade it to be done : and he commanded
them that could 9wim, to cast out them-
selves first, and escape, and go forth to land :
44 and the rest, some they carried on boards,
and some upon those things that were of
the ship. And so it came to pass, that all
the souls escaped to land.

And when we had escaped, then we knew
that the island was called M it > hue. But
the Barbarous shewed us no small courtesy.
2 For, kindling a fire, they refreshed us all,
because of the imminent ruin and the cold.
* And when Paul had gathered together
some number of sticks, and hud hud them
on the fire, a viper baaing out of tho heat,
invaded nil hand. 4 itut as the Barbarous

nml die. But expecting long, and seeing tliat
there was no harm done on him, being
changed, they said that he was a God. 7Anci
in those places were lands of the prince of
the isle, named Publius, who receiving us, for
three days entreated us courteously. 8And
it chanced that the father of Publius lay
vexed with fevers and the bloody flux. Unto
whom Paul entered: and wnen lie had

firayed, and imposed hands on him, he healed
dm. 9 Which being done, all in the isle also
that had infirmities, came, and were cured:
10 who also honoured us with many honours,
and when we were sailing away, laded us with
necessaries.

11 And after three months, we sailed in a
ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the
island, whose sign was the Castors. '-And
when we were come to Syraeusa, we tarried
there three days. u Thence compassing by
the shore, we came to Rhegium : and after
one day the South wind blowing, we came
the second day to Puteoli. M where finding
brethren, we were desired to tarry with
them seven days: and so we came to Rome.
18 And from tlience, when the brethren had
heard they came to meet us unto Apy-forum,
and the Three-taverns. Whom when Paul
had seen, giving thanks to God, he took
courage. lf'And when we were come to
Rome, Paul wns permitted to remain to
himself with a soldier that kept him. ''And
after the third day he called together the
chief of the Jews. And when they were
assembled, lie said to them,

Men brethren, I doing nothing against the
;eople, or the custom of the fathers, was de-
ivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the
hands of the Romans; Bwho when they had
examined me, would have released me, for
that there was no cause of death in me.
19 But the Jews contradicting it, I was com-
pelled to appeal unto IVsar, not as having
anything to accuse my nation. -uFor tins
cause therefore 1 desired to sec you and to
speak to you; for, because of the hope of
Israel, am I compassed with this chain.

21 But they said to him, We neither re-
ceived letters concerning thee from Jewry,
neither did any of the brethren that nunc
hither, report or speak any evil of thee,
we desire of thee to hear what thou thinkest \
for concerning this sect, it is known to us
that it is gainsaid everywhere. '-'Ami when

they hud appointed him a day, they eiime to
him unto his lodging very many: to whom

he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God,

and using persuasion to them 01 Jesus out of
the law of tfoyses and the Prophets, from
morning until evening. -'And certain be-
tiered those things that were said: but
certain believed not. -'And whereas they
did not agree among themselves, they de-
parted, Paul saying one word : That well

to our fathers, y> saying, Go to this people,

unto you. n For I desire to see you, that I
may impart unto you some spiritual grace,
to conOrin you : ^that is to say, to be com-
forted together in you by that which is
common to us both, your faith and mine.
13 And I will not have you ignorant (brethren)
that I have often purposed to come unto you
(and have been stayed hitherto), that I may
have some fruit in you, as also in the other
Gentiles. 14To the Greeks and the Bar-
barous, to the wise and the unwise, I am
debtor. uSo (as much as is in me) I am
ready to evangelize to you also that are at
Koine.

16 For I am not ashamed of the Gos-
pel. For it is the power of God unto salva-
tion to every one that believeth, to the Jew
first and to the Greek. )7For the justice
of God is revealed therein by faith into
faith : as it is written : And the just liveth
by faith.

wFor the wrath of God from heaven is
revealed upon all impiety and injustice of
those men that detain the verity of God in
injustice: ''because, that of God which is
known, is manifest in them. For God hath
manifested it unto them. " For his invisible
things, from the creation of the world are
seen, being understood by those things that
are made : h is eternal poweralso and Divinity :
so that they are inexcusable. -'Because,
whereas they knew God, they have not glori-
fied him as God, or given thanks : but are
become vain in their cogitations, and their
foolish heart hath been darkened. ^For,
saving themselves to be wise, they became
fools. a And they changed the glory of the
incorruptible God, into a similitude of the
image of a corruptible man, and of fowls and
four-footed beasts, and of them that creep.
24 (For the which cause God hath delivered
them up unto the desires of their heart, into
uncleanness, for to abuse their own bodies
among themselves ignominiouslv.) * Who
have changed the verity of God into lying:
and have worshipped and served the crea-
ture rather than the creator, who is blessed
for ever. Amen. '-'•'Therefore God hath
delivered them into passions of igno-
miny. For their women have changed the
natural use, into that use that is contrary
to nature. -?And in like manner the men
also, leaving the natural use of the wo-
man, have burned in their desires one to-
ward another, men upon men working
turpitude, and the reward of their error
(which they should) receiving in them-
selves. -'"And as they liked not to have
God m knowledge: God delivered them up
into a reprobate sense: to do those things
that are not convenient : -N replenished with
all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice,
wickedness, full of envy, murder, contention,
guile, malignity, whisperers, ^detractors,

Graecis ac Barbaris, sapientibus et insipientibus, debitor 14

Romae estis, evangelizare.

Non enim erubesco Evangelium. \irtus enim Dei 16
est in salutem omni credenti, Judaeo primum, et
Grrcco. Justitia enim Dei in eo revelatur ex fide 17
in fidera: sicut scriptum est: Justus autem ex fide
vivit.

Revelatur enim ira Dei de ccelo super omnem 18
impietatem, et injustitiam hominum eorum, qui veri-
tatem Dei in injustitia detinent: quia quod notum est 19
Dei, manifestum est in illis. Deus enim illis mani-
festavit. Invisibilia enim ipsius, a creatura mundi, 20
per ea qua? facta sunt, intellecta conspiciuntur: sempi-
terna quoque ejus virtus et divinitas: ita ut sint inex-
cusabiles. Quia cum cognovissent Deum, non sicut 21
Dcum glorificaverunt, ant gratias egerunt : sed
evanuerunt in cogitationibus suis, et obscuratum est
insipiens cor eorum: dicentes enim se ipientes, 22

stulti facti sunt. Et mutavcrunt gloriam incorrup- 23
tibilis Dei in similitudinem imaginis corruptibilis
hominis, et volucrum, et quadrupedum, et serpentium.
Propter quod tradidit illos Deus in deeidena cordis 24
eorum, in immunditiam ; ut contumeliis afiiciant
corpora sua in semetipsis: qui commutavcrunt vcri- 25
tatem Dei in mendacium: et colucrunt, et servierunt
creaturae potius quam Creatori, qui est benedictus in

sed etiam qui consentiunt facientibus.

2 Propter quod inexcusabilis es, 0 homo omnis, qui
judicas. In quo enim judicas alterum, teipsum con-

quoniam judicium Dei est secundum veritatem in eos,

judicas eos, qui talia agunt, et facis ea, quia tu effugies

4 judicium Dei? An divitias bonitatis ejus, et patientiae,
et longanimitatis contemnis? ignoras quoniam benig-

5 nitas Dei ad poenitentiam te adducit? Secundum
autem duritiam tuam, et impoenitens cor, thesaurizas

6 tibi iram in die irae, et revelationis justi judicii Dei, qui

7 reddet unicuique secundum opera ejus: iis quidem,
qui secundum patientiam boni operis, gloriam, et
honorem, et incorruptionem quae runt, vitam aeternam:

8 iis autem, qui sunt ex contentione, et qui non ac-
quiescunt veritati, credunt autem iniquitati, ira, et

10 gloria autem, et honor, et pax ornni operand bonum,

1 2 personarum apud Deum. Quicumque enim sine lege
peccaverunt, sine lege peribunt: et quicumque in lege

13 peccaverunt, per legem judicabuntur: non enim audi-
tores legis justi sunt apud Deum, sed factores legis

14 justificabuntur. Cum enim Gentes, quae legem non

whereas they knew the justice of God, did
not understand that they which do such
things, are worthy of death : not only they
that do them, but they also that consent to
the doers.

For the which cause thou art inexcusable,
O man, whosoever thou be that judgest.
For wherein thou judgest another, thou con-
demnest thyself, for thou doest the same
things which thou judgest. 2For we know
that the judgment of God is according to
verity upon them that do such things. 3 And
dost thou suppose this, O man, that judgest
them which do such things, and doest the
same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of
God? 4Or dost thou contemn the riches
of his goodness, and patience, and long-
animity, not knowing that the benignity of
God bringeth thee to penance? 5But ac-
cording to thy hardness and impenitent
heart, thou heapest to thyself wrath, in the
day of wrath and of the revelation of the
just judgment of God, 6who will render to
every man according to his works : 7 to
them truly that according to patience in
good work, seek glory and honour and iucor-
ruption, life eternal : s but to them that are
of contention, and that obey not the truth,
but give credit to iniquity, wrath and indig-
nation. 9 Tribulation and anguish upon
every soul of man that worketh evil, of the
Jew first and of the Greek : 10 but glory and
honour and peace to every one that worketh
good, to the Jew first and to the Greek;
11 for there is no acception of persons with
God. '-For whosoever have sinned without
the Law, without the Law shall perish : and
whosoever have sinned in the Law, by the
Law shall be judged. u For not the hearers
of the Law are just with God : but the doers
of the Law shall be justified. u For when
the Gentiles which have not the Law, na-
turally do those things that are of tho Law :
the same not having the Law, themselves
are a Law to themselves: Mwho shew the
work of the Law written in their hearts,

-4 (For the name of Ood through you is
blasphemed among the Gentiles, as it is
written.) :5 Circumcision indeed profitetli,
if thou observe the Law: but if tliou be a
prevaricator of the Law, thy circumcision is
become prepuce. I6 1 f then the prepuce keep
the justices of the Law: shall not his pre-
puce be reputed for circumcision? ^and
shall not that which of nature »is prepuce,
fulfilling the Law, judge thee, that by the
letter and circumcision art a prevaricator of
the Law. aFor not he that is in open shew,
is a Jew, nor that which is in open shew, in
the flesh, is circumcision : abut he that is in
secret, is a Jew : and the circumcision of
the heart, in spirit, not in the letter: whose
praise is not of men, but of God.

What preeminence then hath the Jew, or
what is the profit of circumcision ? s Much
by all means. First surely because the words
of God were committed to them. 3For what
if certain of them have not believed? Hath
their incredulity made the faith of God
frustrate? 4 God forbid. But God is true:
and every man a liar, as it is written : That
thou mayest be justified in tin/ words, and
overcome when thou art judged. 5liut if
our iniquity commend the justice of God,
what shall we say? Is God unjust that
executeth wrath? (I speak according to
man.) 6God forbid; otherwise how shall
God judge 1 1 lis world? 7For if the verity
of God hath abounded in my lie, unto his
glory, why am I also yet judged as a sinner,
*and not (as wo are blasphemed, and as
some report us to say) let us do evil, that
there may come good? whose damnation is
just.

9 What then? do we excel them ? No, not
so. For we have argued the Jews and the
t i recks, all to be under sin : 10as it is written :
That there is not an;/ man just, " there is
not that understandeth, there it not that

neque qua? in manifesto, in came, est circumcisio: sed 29
qui in abscondito, Judaeus est: et circumcisio cordis in
spiritu, non littera: cujus laus non ex hominibus, sed
ex Deo est.

Quid ergo amplius Judaeo est? aut quae utilitas 3
circumcisionis? Multum per omnem modum. Pri- 2
mum quidem quia credita sunt illis eloquia Dei. Quid 3
enim si quidam illorum non crediderunt? Numquid
incredulitas illorum fidem Dei evacuabit ? Absit.
Est autem Deus verax: omnis autem homo mendax, 4
sicut scriptum est: Ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis:
et vincas cum judicaris. Si autem iniquitas nostra 5
justitiam Dei commendat, quid dicernus? Numquid
iniquus est Deus, qui infert nam? (secundum hominem
dico.) Absit; alioquin quomodo judicabit Deus hunc 6
mundum? Si enim Veritas Dei in meo mendacio 7
abundavit in gloriam ipsius: quid adliuc et ego tam-
quam peccator judicor? Et non (sicut blasphemamur, 8
et sicut aiunt quidam nos dicere) faciamus mala ut
veniant bona: quorum damnatio justa est.

Quid ergo? pnecellimus eos? Nequaquam. ( 'ausati 9
enim sumus Judaeoa et Graecos omnes sub peccato (

fidem Jesu Christi in omnes et super omnes, qui

23 credunt in eum: non enim est distinctio: ornnes enim

24 peccaverunt, et egent gloria Dei; justificati gratis per
gratiam ipsius, per redemptionem, quae est in Christo

25 Jesu, quern proposuit Deus propitiationem per fidem
in sanguine ipsius, ad ostensionem justitiam suae, propter

26 remissionem praecedentium delictorum. In susten-
tatione Dei, ad ostensionem justitiae ejus in hoc tem-
pore: ut sit ipse Justus, et justificans eum, qui est ex
fide Jesu Christi.

27 Ubi est ergo gloriatio tua? Exclusa est. Per quam
legem ? Factorum ? Non : sed per legem fidei.

28 Arbitramur enim justificari hominem per fidem sine

29 operibus legis. An Judaeorum Deus tantum? nonne

30 et Gentium? Immo et Gentium. Quoniam quidem
unus est Deus, qui justificat circumcision em ex fide,

31 et praeputium per fidem. Legem ergo destruimus per
fidem? Absit: sed legem statuimus.

4 Quid ergo dicemus invenisse Abraham patrem

2 nostrum secundum carnem? Si enim Abraham ex
operibus justificatus est, habet gloriam, sed non apud

3 Deum. Quid enim dicit Scriptura ? Credidit
Abraham Deo: et reputatum est illi ad justitiam.

4 Ei autem, qui operatur, merces non imputatur secun-

5 dum gratiam, sed secundum debitum. Ei vero, qui
non operatur, credenti autem in eum, qui justificat
impium, reputatur fides ejus ad justitiam secundum

6 propositum gratiae Dei. Sicut et David dicit bcatitu-
dinem hominis, cui Deus accepto f'ert justitiam sine

7 operibus: beati, quorum remissae sunt iniquitates, et
H quorum tecta sunt peccata. Beatus vir, cui non irppu-

tabit dominus peccatum.
9 Beatitudo ergo haec in circumcisione tantum manet,
an etiam in pneputio? Dicimus enim quia reputata

10 est Abrahae fides ad justitiam. Quomodo ergo reputata

' in. circumcisione, an in prsputio? Non in cir-

1 1 cum 1 in pneputio. Et lignum accepit
circumcisionis, signaculum justitia; fidei, qua est in
prsputio: ut sit pater omnium credentium per pnepu-

faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all
that believe in him. For there is no distinc-
tion. ^For all have sinned: and do need
the glory of God. :4 Justified gratis by his
grace, by the redemption that is in Christ
Jesus, 25 whom God hath proposed a propi-
tiation, by faith in his blood, to the shewing
of his justice, for the remission of former
sins, ^in the toleration of God, to the shew-
ing of his justice in this time : that he may
be just, and justifying him that is of the
faith of Jesus Christ.

" Where is then thy boasting? it is ex-
cluded ; by what law ? of deeds ? No, but
by the law of faith. :s For we account a man
to be justified by faith without the works of
the Law. ffl Is he God of the Jews only ? is
he not also of the Gentiles ? Yes, of the
Gentiles also. 3° For it is one God, that
justifieth circumcision by faith, and prepuce
by faith. 31 Do we then destroy the Law by
faith ? God forbid. But we do establish
the Law.

"What shall we say then that Abraham did
find, our father according to the flesh ? 2 For
if Abraham were justified by works : he hath
glory, but not with God. 3For what saitli
the Scripture? Abraham believed God, and
it ioas reputed him to justice. 4 But to him
that worketh, the reward is not imputed
according to grace, but according to debt.
*But to him that worketh not, yet believeth
in him that justifieth the impious, his faith is
reputed to justice according to the purpose of
the grace of God. 6As David also termeth the
blessedness of a man, to whom God reputeth
justice without works, ' Blessed are they,
whose iniquities be forgiven, and whose sins
be covered. 8 Blessed is the man to whom
our Lord hath not imputed sin.

9 This blessedness, then, doth it abide in
the circumcision, or in the prepuce also ?
For we say that unto Abraham faith was
reputed to justice. '"How was it reputed?
in circumcision, or in prepuoe ? Not in cir-
cumcision, bul in prepuce. " And be received
the sign 01 circumciaion, a leal of the justice
of faith thai ia in prepuoe! that he might be
the father of all that believe l>y the prepu ie,

of our father Abraham. "For not hy tho

seed, thai he should be heir of the world:

may be firm to all the seed, not to that only
which is (if the Law, hut to that also which
i> oft lie faith of Abraham, who is the father
of us all, (as it is written, '" For, a father of
ma nil mil ions /mri' I appointed thee) before
God, whom thou didst believe, who quick-
cnctli the dead: and calleth those things
that are not, as those things that are. ls\\'ho
contrary to hone believed in hope: that he
mi^ht be made the father of many nations,
according to that which wa9 said to him : so
shall tin./ seed be, as the stars of heaven, and
the sand of the sea. 19And he was not
weakened in faith: neither did he consider
his own body now quite dead, whereas he
was almost an hundred years old, and the
dead mat rice of Sara. '*> Jn the promise also
of God he staggered not by distrust: but
was strengthened in faith, giving glory to
God: -'most fully knowing that whatsoever
he promised, he is able also to do. --There-
fore was it also reputed him to justice.

21 And it is not written only for him, that
it was reputed him to justice: -4but also for
us, to whom it shall be reputed believing in
him, that raised up Jesus Christ our Lord
from the dead, ^who was delivered up
for our sins, and rose again for our justifi-
cation.

Being justified therefore by faith, let us
hare peace toward God by our Lord .Jesus
Christ : -by whom also we have access through
faith into this grace wherein wo stand, and
glory, in the hope of the glory of the sons of
God. 3And not only this : but also we glory
in tribulations : knowing that tribulation
workclh patience: 'and patience, probation:
and probation, hope. 5 And hope eonfoundeth
not: because the charity of God is poured
forth in our hearts, by the holy Ghost which
is given us. 'Forwhydjd Christ, when we
as yet were weak, according to the time die
for the impious? 'For, scarce for a just
man doth any die : for perhaps for a good
man durst some man die. Mint God com-
mendeth his charity in us : because, when as
yet we were sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more therefore now being justified
in bis blood, shall we be saved from wrath
by him. ,0For if. when we were enemies.
We were reconciled to God by the death of
his Son : much more being reconciled, shall
we be saved in the life of him. " And not
only this: but also we glory in God through
our Lord .lesus Christ, by whom now we

have received reconciliation.

"Therefore, as by one man sin entered
into this world, and by sin death: and so
unto all men death did pass, m which uil

in the world : but sin was not imputed, when

gratiam firma sit promissio omni scmini, non ei, qui ex
lege est solum, sed ct ci, qui ex fide est Abraham, qui
pater est omnium nostrum. (Sicut scriptum est: Quia 17
patrem multarum gentium posui tc) ante Deum, cui
credidit, qui vivilicat mortuos, ct vocat ea quae non
sunt, tamquam ea quae sunt. Qui contra spem in spem 18
credidit, ut fieret pater multarum gentium, secundum
quod dictum est ei: Sic erit semen tuum. Et non 19

Non est autem scriptum tantum propter ipsum quia 23
reputatum est illi ad justitiam: sed et propter nos, 24
quibus reputabitur credentibus in eum, qui suscitavit
Jesum Christum Dominum nostrum a mortuis, qui 25
traditus est propter delicta nostra, ct resurrexit propter
justificationem nostram.

Justificati ergo ex fide, paccm habeamus ad Deum 5

scicntes quod tribulatio paticntiam operatur: patientia 4
autem probationem, probatio vero spem; spes autem 5
non confundit: quia charitas Dei diffusa est in cordibus
nostris per Spiritum sanctum, qui datus est nobis. Ut 6

3 aid enim Christus, cum adhuc infirmi essemus, secun-
um tempus pro impiis mortuus est? Vix enim pro 7
justo quis moritur: nam pro bono forsitan quis audeat
mori. Commcndat autem charitatem suam Deus in S
nobis: quoniam cum adhuc peccatorcs essemus, secun-

igitur magis nunc justificati in sanguine ipsius, salvi

14 non esset. Sed regnavit mors ab Adam usque ad
Moysen etiam in eos, qui non peccaverunt in similitu-

15 dinem prasvaricationis Adas, qui est forma futuri. Sed
non sicut delictum, ita et donum: si enim unius delicto
multi mortui sunt: multo magis gratia Dei ct donum
in gratia unius hominis Jesu Christi in plures abun-

16 davit. Et non sicut per unum peccatum, ita et
donum: nam judicium quidem ex uno in condemna-
tionem: gratia autem ex multis delictis in justifica-

17 tionem. Si enim unius delicto mors regnavit per
unum: multo magis abundantiam gratiae, et donationis,
et justitiae accipientes, in vita regnabunt per unum

18 Jesum Christum. Igitur sicut per unius delictum in
omnes homines in condemnationem : sic et per unius
justitiam in omnes homines in justificationem vitae.

19 Sicut enim per inobedientiam unius hominis, pecca-
tores constituti sunt multi : ita et per unius obedi tionem,

20 justi constituentur multi. Lex autem subintravit ut
abundaret delictum. Ubi autem abundavit delictum,

21 superabundavit gratia. Ut sicut regnavit peccatum
in mortem: ita et gratia regnet per justitiam in vitam
aeternam, per Jesum Christum Dominum nostrum.

6 Quid ergo dicemus? permanebimus in peccato ut

2 gratia abundet? Absit? Qui enim mortui sumus

ratis quia quicumque baptizati sumus in Christo Jesu,

4 in morte ipsius baptizati sumus? Consepulti enim
sumus cum illo per baptismum in mortem: ut quo-
modo Christus surrexit a mortuis per gloriam Patris,

5 ita et nos in novitate vitae ambulemus. Si enim
complantati facti sumus similitudini mortis ejus: siniul

rrectionis erimus. Hoc scientes, quia vetus
homo noster simul crucifixus est, ut destruatur corpus

the law was not. "But death reigned from
Adam unto Moses, even on them also that
sinned not after the similitude of the pre-
varication of Adam, who is a figure of him
to come. ^But not as the offence, so also
the gift ; for if by the offence of one, many-
died : much more the grace of God and the
gift, in the grace of one man Jesus Christ,
hath abounded upon many. 16And not as
by one sin, so also the gift ; for judgment
indeed is of one, to condemnation : but grace
is of many offences, to justification. ''For
if in the offence of one, death reigned by
one : much more they that receive the
abundance of grace, and of donation, and of
justice, shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
18 Therefore as by the offence of one, unto all
men to condemnation : so also by the justice
of one, unto all men to justification of life.
wFor as by the disobedience of one man,
many were made sinners : so also by the
obedience of one, many shall be made just.
2uBut the Law entered in, that sin might
abound. And where sin abounded, grace
did more abound ; 21 that as sin reigned
to death : so also grace may reign by justice
to life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our
Lord.

What shall we say then? Shall we con-
tinue in sin that grace may abound? 2God
forbid. For we that are dead to sin, how
shall we yet live therein ? 3 Are you ignorant
that all we which are baptized in Christ
Jesus, in his death we are baptized? 4For
we are buried together with him by Baptism
into death : that as Christ is risen from the
dead by the glory of the father, so we also
may walk in newness of life. sFor if we be
become complanted to the similitude of his
death, we shall be also of his resurrection.
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified
with him, that the body of sin may be de-
stroyed, to the end that we may serve sin no
longer. 7For he that is dead, is justified
-in. "And if we be dead with Christ,

dominion over you; for you are not under
the Law, but under grace.

" What then? shall we sin, because we are
not under the Law, but under grace? God
forbid. I6 Know you not that to whom you
exhibit yourselves servants to obey, you are
the servants of him whom you obey, whet her
it be of nin, to death, or of obedience, to
justice. ^But thanks be to God, that you
wore the servants of sin, but have obeyed
from the heart unto that form of doctrine,
into the which you have been delivered.
lsAnd being made free from sin, yon were
made servants to justice. 1JI speak an
human thing, because of the infirmity of
your flesh ; for as you have exhibited your
members to serve uncleanness and iniquity,
unto iniquity: so now exhibit your members
to serve justice, unto sanctification. -"For
when you were servants of sin, you were free
to justice. 2l What fruit therefore had you
then in those things, for which now you are
ashamed P for the end of them is death.
--' Hut now being made free from 9in, and
become servants to God, you have your
fruit unto sanctification, but the end, life
everlasting. B For the stipends of sin, death :
but the grace of God, life everlasting in Christ
Jesus our Lord.

Are you ignorant, brethren, (for T speak to
them that know the Law) thai the Law hath
dominion lover a man as long time as he
liveth? :l''or the woman that is under a
husband : her husband living is bound to
the law : but if her husband be dead, she is
loosed from the law of her husband. •'There-
fore her husband living, she shall be called
an adulteress if she be with another man:
but if her husband be dead, she is delivered
from the law of her husband : so that she is
not an adulteress if she be with another man.
* Therefore my brethren you also are made
dead to the Law by the body of Christ: that
you may be another man's, who is risen again
from the dead, that we may fructify to God.
6 For when we were in the flesh, the passions
of sins, that were by the Law, did work in
our members, to fructify unto death; 8but
now we are loosed from the law of death,
wherein we were detained : insomuch we
serve in newness of spirit, and not in the
oldness of the letter.

7 What shall wo sny then ? is the Law
sin? God forbid. But sin I did not know,
but by the Law; for oonoupisoence 1 knew

not, unless the law did say : Thou shall not
con I. 8l!ut occasion being taken, sin by

the commandment wrought in me all con-
cupiscence. For without the Lan sm was
dead. ''And I lived without the Law some-
time, lint when the commandment was
borne, sin revived. '"And 1 was dead; and
the commandment that was unto life, the

Mime to me was found to be unto death.

11 For sin, taking occasion by the command-
ment, seduced me, and by it killed me.
"Therefore the Law indeed is holy, and the
commandment holy, and just, and good.

non dominabitur: non enira sub lege estis, sed sub

Quid ergo? peccabimus, quoniam non sumus sub 15
lege, sed sub gratia? Absit. Xescitis quoniam cui 16
exhibetis vos servos ad obediendum, servi estis ejus,
eui obeditis, sive peccati ad mortem, sivc obeditionis

buistis membra vestra servirc immunditiae, et iniquitati

Stipendia enim peccati, mors. Gratia autem Dei, vita 23

An ignoratis, fratres (scientibus enim legem loquor) 7
quia lex in homine dominatur quanto tempore vivit?
Nam qua: sub viro est mulier, viventc viro, alligata 2
est legi: si autem mortuus fuerit vir ejus, Boluta est a
lege viri. Igitur, viventc viro, vocabitur adulters si 3
fuerit cum alio viro: si autem mortuus fuerit vir ejus,
liberata est a lege viri: ut non sit adultera si fuerit
cum alio viro. Itaque, fratres mei, et vos mortilieati 4
estis legi pet corpus Cbristi: ut sitis alterius, qui ex
mortuis resurrexit, ut fructificcmus Deo. Cum enim 5
essemus in came, passiones peccatorum, quaj per legem
emit, operabantur in membiia nostril, ut fructificarent
morti. Nunc autem soluti sumus a lege mortis, in qua 6
detinebamur. ita ut serviamus in novitate BpiritUS, et
non in vctustate littcne.

Quid ergo dioemus? lex pecoatam est? Absit. 7
Sed peccatum non cognovi, nisi per legem: nam con-
cupisccntiam nesciebam, nisi lex diceret: Non ooncu-
pisces. Occasione autem sccepta, pecoatam per 8
mandatum opexatum est in me omnem ooucupiscentiam.
Sine lege enim peccatum mortuumerat Egoautem vive- 9

Romans VII. 13— VIII. 11.

1 3 Quod ergo bonum est, mihi factum est mors ?
Absit. Sed peccatum, ut appareat peccatura, per
bonum operatum est mihi mortem : ut fiat supra

14 modum peccans peccatum per mandatum. Scimus
enim quia lex spiritualis est: ego autem carnalis sum,

15 venundatus sub peccato. Quod enim operor, non
intelligo: non enim quod volo bonum, hoc ago: sed

16 quod odi malum, illud facio. Si autem quod nolo,
illud facio: consentio legi, quoniam bona est.

17 Nunc autem jam non ego operor illud, sed quod

1 8 habitat in me peccatum. Scio enim quia non habitat
in me, hoc est in carne mea, bonum. Xam velle,
adjacet mihi: perficere autem bonum, non invenio.

19 Non enim quod volo bonum, hoc facio: sed quod nolo

20 malum, hoc ago. Si autem quod nolo, illud facio:
jam non ego operor illud, sed quod habitat in me,

21 peccatum. Invenio igitur legem, volenti mihi facere

22 bonum, quoniam mihi malum adjacet : condelector

23 enim legi Dei secundum interiorem hominem : video
autem aliam legem in membris meis, repugnantem
legi mentis meae, et captivantem me in lege peccati,

24 quae est in membris meis. Infelix ego homo, quis me

25 liberabit de corpore mortis hujus? Gratia Dei per
Jesum Christum Dominum nostrum. Igitur ego ipse
mente servio legi Dei: carne autem, legi peccati.

8 Nihil ergo nunc damnationis est iis, qui sunt in
Christo Jesu, qui non secundum carnem ambulant.

2 Lex enim spiritus vita? in Christo Jesu liberavit me a

3 lege peccati et mortis. Nam quod impossibile erat
legi, in quo infirmabatur per carnem: Deus filium

am carnal, sold under sin. 13 For that which
I work, I understand not : for not that
which I will, the same do I : but which I
hate, that I do. l6 And if that which I will
not, the same I do : I consent to the Law,
that it is good.

17 But now, not I work it any more, but
the sin that dwelleth in me. 13For I know
that there dwelleth not in me, that is to
say, in my flesh, good. For to will is present
with me, but to accomplish that winch is
good, I find not. 19For not the good which
1 will, that do I: but the evil which I will
not, that I do. =°And if that which I will
not, the same I do : now not I work it, but
the sin that dwelleth in me. -1 1 find there-
fore, the Law, to me having a will to do good,
that evil is present with me. "For 1 am
delighted with the law of God according to
the inward man : ^but 1 see another law in
my members, repugning to the law of my
mind, and captiving me in the law of sin
that is in my members. :4 Unhappy man
that 1 am, who shall deliver me from the
body of this death? 2>The grace of God
by Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore I my-
self with the mind serve the law of God:
but with the flesh, the law of sin.

There is now therefore no damnation to
them that are in Christ Jesus: that walk
not according to the flesh. 'For the law of
the spirit of life in Christ Jesus, hath delivered
me Irom the law of sin and of death. 3For
that which was impossible to the Law, in
that it was weakened by the flesh : God
sending his son in the similitude of the flesh
of sin, even of sin damned sin in the flesh,
■•that the justification of the law might be
fulfilled in us, who walk not according to
the flesh, but according to the spirit. • For
they that are according to the flesh, are af-
fected to the t hmes that are of the flesh ; hut
they that are according to the spirit, are
affected to the things thai are of the spirit.
'For the wisdom of the flesh, is death: but

the wisdom of the spirit, life and pence.

dwelling in you. "Therefore brethren, we
are debtors: not to t he Jlesh. to live according
to the ilesh. uFor if you live according to
the flesh, you shall die; but if by the spirit,
you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall
live. "For whosoever are led by the spirit
of God, they are the sons of God. u For you
have not received the spirit of servitude again
in fear: but you have received the spirit of
adoption of sons, wherein we cry: Abba,
(father). )r' For the Spirit himself, giveth
testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons
of God. 1?And if sons, heirs also: heirs
truly of God, and coheirs of Christ: jrel if
we suffer with him, that we may be also
glorified with him.

18 For I think that the passions of this
time are not condign to the glory to come
that shall be revealed in us. 19 For the ex-
pectation of the creature, expecteth the
revelation of the sons of God. a'For the
creature is made subject to vanity, not
willing, but for him that made it subject in
hope: -' because the creature also itself shall
be delivered from the servitude of corruption,
into the liberty of the glory of the children
of God. -For we know that every creature
groaneth, and travaileth even till now.
-'And not only it, but we also ourselves
having the firstfruits of the spirit, we also
groan within ourselves, expecting the adoption
of the sons of God, the redemption of our
body. -' For by hope wo are saved, hut
hope that is seen, is not hone: for that
which a man seeth, wherefore doth he hope
it? ':515ut if we hope for that which we
sec not: we expect by patience, "And in

39 stantia, neque iutura, neque fortitudo, neque altitudo,
neque prolundum, neque creatura alia poterit nos

neither things present, nor tilings to come,
neither might, M nor height, nor depth, nor
other creature, shall be [able to separate us
from the charity of God which is in Clirist
Jesus our Lord.

I speak the verity in Christ, I lie not. my
conscience bearing me witness in the holy
Ghost, - that I have great sadness and con-
tinual sorrow in my heart. 3 For I wished,
myself to be an anathema from Christ for
my brethren, who are my kinsmen according
to the flesh, 4 who are Israelites, whose is the
adoption of sons, and the glory, and the
testament, and the lawgiving, and the service,
and the promises: 5 whose are the fathers,
and of whom Christ is according to the flesh,
who is above all things God blessed for ever.
Amen.

6 But not that the word of God is frustrate.
For, not all that are of Israel, they be
Israelites: ^nor they that are the seed of
Abraham, all be children : but in Isaac shall
the seed be called unto thee : s that is to say,
not they that are the children of the flesh,
they are the children of God : but they that
are the children of the promise, are esteemed
for the seed. 9For the word of the promise
is this, According to this time will I come :
and Sara shall have a son. 10 And not only
she, But Rebecca also conceiving of one
copulation, of Isaac our father. " For when
they were not yet born, nor had done any
good or evil (that the purpose of God ac-
cording to election might stand) ^not of
works, but of the caller it was said to her :
That the elder shall serve the younger, 1:,as
it is written : Jacob I loved, but Esau I
hated.

:,\Vhat ahal! we say then? Is there

iniquity witli God ? God forbid. ''For to

the sea, the remaint shall be saved. -" For
consummating a word, and abridging it in
equity: because a word abridged shall our
Lord make upon the earth. "And as K-.iy
foretold, Unless Hie Lord of Sabaoth had
left its seed : we had been made like Sodom,
and toe had been like as (iomorrha.

30 What shall wo say then ? That the Gen-
tiles which pursued not after justice, have
apprehended just ice, but the justice that is of
faith. ■" But Israel in pursuing the law of
justice, is not come unto the law of justice.
■Why so? Because not of faith, but as it
wereof works: for they hare stumbled at the
stone of stumbling, -^as it is written, Behold
1 put in Sinn a stone of Stumbling, and a
rock of scandal : and whosoever believeth
in him, shall not be confounded.

Brethren, the will of my heart surely and
prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.

2 For I give them testimony that they have
zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,

3 For, not knowing the justice of God, and
seeking to establish their own, they have not
been subject to the justice of God. 'For,
the end oft lie Law is Christ: unto justice to
every one that believeth ; 5 for M<>\ Bes VI n>U ,
that, the justice which is of the Law, the man
that hath done it, shall lire in it. ' But the
justice which is of faith, saith thus, Say not
in thy heart, Who shall ascend into hi

that is to bring Christ down. ' Or who
descendcth into the depth I that is to call
Christ again from the dead. s But what saith
the Scripture? The word is nigh, in thy
month, and in thy heart: this is the word of
faith which we preach. '-' For if t lion confess
with thy mouth our Lord Jesus, and in thy
heart believe that God hath raised him up
from the dead, thou shalt be saved. ,0 For
with the heart we believe unto justice: but
with the mouth confession is made t o sal v :it inn.

H For the Scripture saith: Whosoever be-
lieveth in him, shall not be confounded,
there is DO distinction of the Jew and the
Greek : for one il Lord ol all, rich toward all
thatinvocate him. ''/■'<;• everyone whoso-

Or how shall the] believe him whom they

without a preacher? ''lint how shall they
h Unlets they be sent ? as it is written :

ut ostenderet divitias gloriac suae in vasa misericordia\
quae pnvparavit in gloriam.

Quos ct vocavit nos non solum ex Judaeis, scd etiam
ex Gcntibus. Sicut in Osee dicit : Yocabonon plebem
meam, plebem meam: et non dilcctam, dilectam: et
non miscricordiam consecutam, miscricordiam consc-
cutam. Et erit; in loco, ubi dictum est eis, Xos
plebs mea vos: ibi vocabuntur filii Dei vivi. Isaias
autem clamat pro Israel: Si fuerit numerus filioruin
Israel tamquam arena maris, reliquiae salvai dent. Ver-
bum enim consummans, et abbrcvians in aequitatc:
quia verb um breviatum faciet Dominus super terram:
ct sicut pnedixit Isaias: Xisi Dominus sabaoth reli-
quisset nobis semen, sicut Sodoma facti essemut
sicut Gomorrha similes f'uissemus.

Quid ergo dicemus? Quod gentes, qua? non so
bantur justitiam, apprehendcrunt justitiam: justitiam
autem, qiue ex fide est. Israel vcro scctando Legem
juatitiae, in legem jxistitiaj non pervenit. Quarc? Quia
non ex fide, sed quasi ex opcribus: ofFenderunt enim
in lapidem odensionis, sicut scriptum est: Bcce pono
in Sion lapidem odensionis, ct pctram scandali: et
omnia, qui credit in cum. non conrundetur.

Fxatrea, voluntas quidem cordis mei, et obsccratio ad
Dcum, fit pro illis in salutem. Testimonium enim
pcrbibeo illis quod aemulationem Dei habent, sed non
secundum scientiam. Ignorantes enim justitiam Dei,
ct suam quaerentcs statucre, justitiae Dei non sunt sub-
jecti. Finis enim legis, Christus, ad justitiam oinni
Lenti. Moyses enim scripsit, quoniam justitiam,

autem ex fide est justitia, sic dicit: Ne dixeria in

tura? Prope est verbum in ore tuo, et in corde tuo:
hoc est verbum fidei, quod praedioamua Quia si con-

modo vero praedicabunt nisi mittantur? sicut scriptum

est : Quam speciosi pedes evangelizantiura pacem, evan-

16 gelizantium bona! Sed non omnes obediunt Evan-

gelio. Isaias enira dicit : Domine, quis credidit

ij auditui nostro? Ergo fides ex auditu, auditus autem

i8perverbura Christi. Sed dico: Xumquid non audi-

erunt? Et quidem in omnem terrain exivit sonus

eorum, et in fines orbis terras verba eorum.

19 Sed dico: Xumquid Israel non cognovit? Primus
Moyses dicit: Ego ad aamulationem vos adducam in
non gentem : in gentem insipientem, in iram vos

20 mittam. Isaias autem audet, et dicit: Inventus sum
a non quaerentibus me : palam apparui iis, qui me non

2 1 interrogabant. Ad Israel autem dicit : Tota die
expandi manus meas ad populum non credentem, et
contradicentem .

11 Dico ergo : Xumquid Deus repulit populum suum ?
Absit. Xam et ego Israelita sum ex semine Abraham,

2 de tribu Benjamin: non repulit Deus plebem suam,
quam praescivit. An nescitis in Elia quid dicit
Scriptura : quemadmodum interpellat Deum adversum

3 Israel? Domine, Prophetas tuos occiderunt, altaria
tua suffoderunt: et ego relictus sum solus, et qua?runt

4 animam meam. Sed quid dicit illi divinum responsum ?
Reliqui mihi septem millia virorum, qui non curva-

5 reran! genua ante Baal. Sic ergo et in hoc tempore
reliquiae secundum electionem gratiae salvaj factae sunt.

6 Si autem gratia, jam non ex operibus: alioquin gratia
jam non est gratia.

7 Quid ergo ? quod quaerebat Israel, hoc non est
consecutus: electio autem consecuta est: ceteri .vero

8 ex caeca ti sunt: sicut scriptum est: Dedit illis Deus

Sow beautiful are the feet of them that
evangelize peace, of them that evangelize
good things ? 16 But all do not obey the
Gospel. For Esay saith, Lord, who hath
believed the hearing of us? '? Faith, then,
is by hearing: and hearing is by the word
of Christ. lsBut I say, have they not heard?
And certes into all the earth hath the sound
of them gone forth : and unto the ends of the
whole world the toords of them.

19 But I say, hath not Israel known? Moy-
ses first saith, I will bring you to emulation
in that which is not a nation: in a foolish
nation, I will drive you into anger. 20Bufc
Esay is bold, and saith, I ivas found of them
that did not seek me: openly J appeared to
them that asked not of me. '21Butto Israel
he saith. All the day have I spread my hands
to a people that believeth not, and contra-
dicteth me.

I say then : Hath God rejected his people ?
God forbid ; for I also am an Israelite, of
the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Ben-
jamin. 2God hath not rejected his people
which he foreknew. Or know you not in
Elias what the Scripture saith : how he re-
questeth God against Israel ? 3 Lord, they
have slain thy Prophets, they have digged
down thine altars : and I am left alone, and
they seek my life. 4But what saith the
divine answer unto him ? / have left me
seven thousand men, that have not botved
their knees to Baal? 5So therefore at this
time also, there are remains saved according
to the election of grace. 6 And if by grace :
not now of works ; otherwise grace now is
not grace.

"What then? that which Israel sought,
the same he hath not obtained : but the
election hath obtained: and the rest were
blinded. "As it is written : Ood hath given
them the spirit of compunction: eyes, that
they may not see: and ears, that they may
not hear: until this present day. 'And
David saith : Be their table made for a
snare and for a trap and for a scandal and
for a retribution unto than. '" Be their ryes
darkened, that they may not see: and t/mr
back make thou alirays crooked. " 1 say
t lien, have they so stumbled, I lint they should
fall? God forbid; but by their offence,
salvation is to the Gentiles, that they may
emulate them. '-'And if the offenosof them
be the riohei of the world, and the diminu-
tion of them the riohei of the Qentilea i bow

if thou wast cut out of the natural wild olive,
and contrary to nature wast grafted into the
good olive: now much more they that are
according to nature, shall he grafted into their
own olive? -'For I will not have you ig-
norant, brethren, of this mystery (that you
be not wise in yourselves) that blindness in
part hath chanced in Israel, until the fulness
of the Gentiles might enter: :6and so all
Israel might be saved, as it is written : There
shall come out of Sion, he that shall deliver,
and shall avert impiety from Jacob. "1 And
this to them the testament from me: when I
shall have taken away their sins. as Accord-
ing to the Gospel indeed enemies for you:
but according to the election, most dear for
the fathers; -J for without repentance are
the gifts and the vocation of God; a,for as
you also sometinie did not believe God, but
now have obtained mercy because of their
incredulity: •" so these also now have not
believed, for your mercy, that they also may
obtain mercy. •>-' For God hath concluded
all into incredulity, that he may have mercy

him, and retribution shall be made him?
" For of him, and by him, and in bin are all
things: to him be glory for ever. Amen.

I beseech you therefore brethren by the
mercy of God, that you exhibit >our bodies

non tu radicem portas, sed radix te. Dices ergo:

Sed et illi, si non permanscrint in ineredulitate,

Nolo enim voa ignorare fratres mysterium hoc: (ut

19 Therefore the things that are of peace let
us pursue : and the things that are of edi-
fving one toward another let us keep.
M Destroy not the work of God for meat.
All things indeed are clean : but it is ill for
the man that eateth by giving offence. 21 It
is good not to eat flesh, and not to drink wine,
nor that wherein thy brother is offended, or
scandalized, or weakened. ~ Hast thou faith?
have it with thyself before God. Blessed is
he that judgeth not himself in that which he
approveth. aBut he that discerneth, if he
eat, is damned : because not of faith : for all
that is not of faith, is sin.

And we that are the stronger, must sustain
the infirmities of the weak, and not please
ourselves. - Let every one of you please his
neighbour unto good, to edification. 3For
Christ did not please himself, but as it i9
written, The reproaches of them that re-
proached thee, fell upon me. 4For what
tilings soever have been written, to our
learning they are written : that by the
patience and consolation of the Scriptures,
we may have hope. 5And the God of pa-
tience and of comfort give you to be of one
mind one toward another according to Jesus
Christ : 6that of one mind, with one mouth
you may glorify God and the Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ. rFor the which cause
receive one another : as Christ also hath
received you unto the honour of God. 8For
I say Christ Jesus to have been minister of
the circumcision for the verity of God to
confirm the promises of the fathers. 'But the
Gentiles to honour God for bis mercy, as it
is written : Therefore will I confess to thee
in the Gentiles, 0 Lord, and will ting to thy
name. 10And again he saith. Rejoice ye
Gentiles ivith his people. " And again,
Praise all ye Gentiles our Lord : and mag-
nify him all ye peoples. '-' And again Ksaio
saith, There shallbe the root of Jesse: and
he that shall rise up to rule the Gentiles, in
him the Gentiles shall hope. uAnd the
God of hope replenish you with all joy and
peace in believing: that you mar abound in

lllyricum 1 have replenished the Gospel of
( 'hrist. m And I have so preached this Gos-
pel,not where Christ was named, lest I should
build upon another man's foundation: -'but
as it is written, They to whom it hath not
been preached of him shall see : and they that
have not heard, shall understand. K For
the which cause also I was hindered very
much from coming uuto you. aBut now
having no longer place in these countries,
and having a desire to come unto you these
many years now passed ; "when I shall begin
to take my journey into Spain, I hope that as
I pass, I shall see you, and be brought t hit her
of you. if first in port I shall have enjoyed
you. sNow therefore I will go unto Jeru-
salem to minister to the saints. M For Mace-
donia and Achaia have liked well to make
some contribution upon the poor saints that
are in Jerusalem. •' For it hath pleased
them : and they are their debtors. For if
the Gentiles be made partakers of their
spiritual things: they ought also in carnal
things to minuter unto them. ^This there-
fore when I shall have accomplished, and
signed them this fruit, I will go by you into
Spain. -'And I know that coming to you, I
shall come in abundance of the blessing of
Christ. M I beseech you therefore brethren
by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the charity
of the holy Ghost, that you help me in your
prayers for me to God, 31that I may be de-
livered from the infidels that are in Jewry,
and the oblation of my service may become
acceptable in Jerusalem to the saints, :3that
I may come to you in joy by the will of God,
that I may be refreshed with you. ffl And
the God of pcaco be with you all. Amen.

And I commend to you riioebe our sister,
who is in the ministry of the Church that
is in Cenchris: - that you receive her in our
Lord as it is worthy for saints : and that you
assist her in whatsoever business she shall
need you ; for she also hath assisted many
and myself.

EPISTOLA PAULI

COKINTHIOS PEIMA.

Paul called to be an Apostle of Jesus Christ,
by the will of God, and Sosthenes a brother,
-to the Church of God that is at Corinth,
to the sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to
be saints, with all that invocate the name of
our Lord Jesus Christ in every place of theirs
and ours. 3 Grace to you and peace from
God our father and our Lord Jesus Christ.

4 I give thanks to my God always for you
for the grace of God that is given you in
Christ Jesus, 5 that in nil things you be made
rich in him, in all utterance, and in all
knowledge, (6as the testimony of Christ is
confirmed in you,) 7so that nothing is want-
ing to you in any grace, expecting the revela-
tion of our Lord Jesus Christ, 3 who also
will confirm you unto the end without crime,
in the diiy of the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ. 9God is faithlul : by whom you are
called into the society of his son Jesus Christ
our Lord.

10 And I beseech you brethren by the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ, thai you all say one
thing, and that there be no schisms among
you: but that you be perfect in one sense,
and in one knowledge. " For it is signified
unto me (my brethren) of you, by them that
are of Chloe, that there be contentions
among you. ,2And I mean this, lor that
everyone of you saith, 1 oertes am Paul's,
and I Apollo's, hut I Cephas', and 1 Christ's.
11 Is Christ divided? Yt hy, was Paul cruci-
fied for you? or in the name of Paul were
you baptized? ul give God thanks, that I
baptized none of you, but Crispus and
Cams : u lest any man say that in my name
rou were baptized. "And I baptized also the
house of Stephanas. But I kuow not if I
have baptized any other.

lizare: non in sapientia verbi, ut non evacuetur crux

1 8 Christi. Yerbum enim crucis pereuntibus quidem
stultitia est: iis autem, qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis,

19 Dei virtus est. Scriptum est enim: Perdam sapien-
tiam sapientium, et prudentiam prudentium reprobabo.

20 Ubi sapiens? ubi scriba? ubi conquisitor hujus saeculi?
Xonne stultam fecit Deus sapientiam hujus mundi?

21 Nam quia in Dei sapientia non cognovit mundus per
sapientiam Deum : placuit Deo per stultitiam praediea-

22 tionis salvos facere credentes. Quoniam et Judcei

23 signa petunt, et Graeci sapientiam quaerunt: nos autem
praedicamus Christum crucifixum : Judaais quidem

24 scandalum, Gentibus autem stultitiam : ipsis autem
vocatis, Judaeis atque Graecis, Christum Dei virtutem,

25 et Dei sapientiam: quia quod stultum est Dei, sapi-
entius est hominibus : et quod infirmum est Dei,

26 fortius est hominibus. Videte enim vocationem ves-
tram, fratres, quia non multi sapientes secundum

2"j carnem, non multi potentes, non multi nobiles: sed
quae stulta sunt mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat
sapientes: et infirma mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat

28 fortia: et ignobilia mundi, et contemptibilia elegit
Deus, et ea, qua? non sunt, ut ea quae sunt destrueret:

29 ut non glorietur omnis caro in conspectu ejus.

30 Ex ipso autem vos estis in Christo Jesu, qui factus est
nobis sapientia a Deo, et justitia, et sanctificatio, et

3 1 redemptio : ut quemadmodum scriptum est : Qui
gloriatur, in Domino glorietur.

2 Et ego, cum venissem ad vos, fratres, veni non in
sublimitate sermonis, aut sapientiae, annuncians vobis

2 testimonium Christi. Xon enim judicavi me scire
aliquid inter yob, nisi Jesum Christum, et hunc cruci-

evangelize : not in wisdom of speech, that
the cross of Christ be not made void. x,For
the word of the cross, to them indeed that
perish, is foolishness: but to them that are
saved, that is, to us, it is the power of God.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom
of the icise: and the prudence of the prudent
I will reject. *° Where is the wise I xohere is
the Scribe? where is the disputer of this
world ? Hath not God made the wisdom of
this world foolish ? 21 For because in the
wisdom of God the world did not by wisdom
know God : it pleased God by the foolish-
ness of the preaching to save them that
believe. a For both the Jews ask signs, and
the Greeks seek wisdom: ^but we preach
Christ crucified, to the Jews certes a scandal,
and to the Gentiles, foolishness : i4 but to the
called Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of
God and the wisdom of God. -5For that
which is the foolish of God, is wiser than
men: and that which is the infirm of God,
is stronger than men. £6For see your voca-
tion, brethren, that not many wise according
to the flesh, not many mighty, not many
noble : * but the foolish things of the world
hath God chosen, that he may confound the
wise : and the weak things of the world hath
God chosen, that he may confound the st rong :
25 and the base things of the world and the
contemptible hath God chosen, and those
things which are not, that he might destroy
those things which are: ^ that no flesh may
glory in his sight. 3° And of him you are in
Christ Jesus, who is made unto us wisdom
from God, and justice, and sanctification,
and redemption : 31 that as it is written, He
that doth glory, may glory in our Lord.

And I (brethren) when I came to you, I
came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom,
preaching to you the testimony of Christ.
* Fori judged not myself to know anything
among you but Jesus Christ, and him cru-
cified. 3And I was with you in infirmity,
and fear and much trembling: 4and my
speech and my preaching was not in the
persuasible words of human wisdom, but in
shewing of spirit and power : b t hat your faith
might not be in the wisdom of men, but in
the power of God.

that are of God no man knowctli, but the
spirit of God.

'-'And we have received not the spirit of
this world, but the spirit that is ol God:
that we may know the things that of God
are given to ns : "which also we speak not
in learned words of human wisdom : but in
the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spi-
ritual things to the spiritual. " lint the
sensual man perceiretn not those things
thai are of the spirit of God: for it is
foolishness to him, and he cannot under-
stand : because he is spiritually examined.
"But the spiritual man judgeth all things :
and himself is judged of no man. 16 For
who hath known the sense of our Lord
that may instruct him? 13ut we have the
Bensc of Christ.

And T, brethren, could not speak to you
as to spiritual, but as to carnal. As it were
to little ones in Christ, 2I gave you milk
to drink, not meat: for you could not as
yet; but neither can you now verily, for
\ct \uu arc carnal. :i For whereas there is
among you emulation and contention, aro

lieved, and to every one as our Lord hath

ceive his own reward according to his own

as a wise workmaster have I laid the founda-
tion: and another buildcth thereupon j but
let every one look how he buildcth thereon.
11 For other foundation no man can lay,
beside that which is laid: which is Christ
Jesus. "And if any man build upon this
foundation, gold, silver, precious stones,
wood, bay, stubble, "the work of every one
shall be manifest: for the day of our Lord
will declare, because h shall be revealed in

it is, the lire shall try. " if any man's work

receive reward. l:'\f any man's work burn,

you are. lsLet no man seduce himself: if
any man seem to be wise among you in this
world, let him become a fool that he may be
wise. r'For the wisdom of this world is
foolishness with God. For it is written, I
willcompass the wise in their subtlety. -"And
again, Ok?* Lord knoioeth the cogitations of
the wise that they be vain. 21 Let no man
therefore glory in men. For all things are
your's : 2- whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or
Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or
things present, or things to come, for all are
your's : 2'J and you are Christ's, and Christ is
God's.

So let a man esteem us as the ministers of
Christ, and the dispensers of the mysteries of
God. 2Here now is required among the
dispensers that a man be found faithful.
3 But to me it is a thing of least account, to
be judged of you, or of man's day : but I judge
not myself neither. 4For I am not guilty in
conscience of anything; but I am not justified
herein : but he that judgeth me, is our Lord.
"Therefore judge not before the time: until
our Lord do come, who also will lighten the
hidden things of darkness, and will manifest
the counsels of the hearts ; and then the
praise shall be to every man of God.

cBut these things, brethren, I have trans-
figured into myself and Apollo, for you : that
in us you may learn, one not to be puffed up
against another, above that is written. ^For'
who discerneth thee? Or what hast thou
that thou hast not received? And if thou
hast received, what dost thou glory as though
thou hast not received? *Now you arc
filled, now are you become rich : without us
you reign: and I would to God you did
reign, that we also might reign with you.
9For I think that God hath shewed us
Apostles the last, us it wen deputed to death ■
because we are made a spectacle to the world,

There is plainly hoard fornication among
you, and such fornication, as the like is not
among the heathen, so that one hath his
father's wife. • And you are putted up: and
have not mourned rather, that he might be
taken away from among you, that hath done
this deed. B I indeed absent in body, but
present in spirit, have already judged, as
present, him that hath so done, * in the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered
together and my spirit, with the virtue of
our Lord Jesus 5to deliver such an one to
Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that
the spirit may be saved in the day of our
Lord Jesus Christ. 6Your glorying is not
good. Know you not that a little leaven
corrupteth the whole paste? 7 Purge the
old leaven, that vou may be a new paste, as
you are azymes. For our Pasche, Christ, is
immolated. 8 Therefore let us feast, not in
the old leaven, nor in the leaven of malice
and wickedness, but in the azymes of sin-
cerity and verity.

9 1 wrote to you in an epistle, Kot to keep
company with fornicators. '" 1 mean not the
fornicators of this world, or the covetous, or
tiie extortioners, or servers of Idols: other-
wise you should have gone out of this world.
"Hut now I wrote to you, not to keep com-
pany, if he that is named a brother, be a
fornicator, or a covetous person, or a server
of Idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an
extortioner: with such an one not so much
as to take meat. 1J for what is it. to me to
judge of them that arc without? Bo not
you judge of them that are within? u for
them that are without, Cod will judge. Take
away the evil-one from among yourselves.

Dare any of you having a matter against
another, to he judged before the unjust, and
not. before the saints? ':()r know you not
that the saints shall judge of the world ?

are you unworthy to judge of the least t hinga P

Veniam autem ad vos cito, si Dominus voluerit: et 19
cognoscam non sermoncm corum, qui inflati sunt, sed
virtutem. Non enim in sermone est regnum Dei, sed 20
in virtute. Quid vultis? in virga veniam ad vos, an 21
in charitate, et spiritu mansuetudinis?

Omnino auditur inter vos fornicatio, et talis forni- 5
catio, qualis nee inter Gentes, ita ut uxorem patris sui
aliquis babeat. Et vos inflati estis: et non magis 2

operatus est, in nomine Domini nostri Jcsu Christi, 4
congregatis vobis et meo spiritu, cum virtute Domini
nostri Jcsu, tradere hujusmodi satanas in interitum 5
carnis, ut spiritus salvus sit in die Domini nostri Jcsu
Christi. Non est bona gloriatio vestra. Xescitis quia 6
modicum fermentum totam massam corrumpit? Ex- 7
purgate vctus fermentum, ut sitis nova conspersio,

veteri, nequc in fermento malitke et nequitus: sed in
azymis sinceritatis, et veritatis.

non commiscen: si is, qui frater nominatur, est forni-
cator, aut avarus, aut idolis servient, ant maledicus,
aut ebriosus, aut rapax : cum ejusmodi nee cibum

2Solite errare: Xeque fornicarii, neque idolis servientes,

10 neque adulteri, neque molles, neque masculorum con-
cubitores, neque iures, neque avari, neque ebriosi,
neque maledici, neque ra paces, regnum Dei posside-

1 1 bunt. Et haec quidam fuistis: sed abluti estis, sed
sanctificati estis, sed justificati estis in nomine Domini
nostri Jesu Christi, et in Spiritu Dei nostri.

12 Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia expediunt: omnia
mihi licent, sed ego sub nullius redigar potestate.

13 Esca ventri, et venter escis: Deus autem et hunc et
has destruet : corpus autem non fornicationi, sed

14 Domino: et Dominus corpori. Deus vero et Dominum

1 5 suscitavit: et nos suscitabit per virtutem suam. Nescitis
quoniam corpora vestra membra sunt Christi. Tollens
ergo membra Christi, faciam membra meretricis ?

16 Absit. An nescitis quoniam qui adhaeret meretrici,
unum corpus efficitur? Erunt enim (inquit) duo in

17 carne una. Qui autem adhaeret Domino, unus spiritus

18 est. Fugite fbrnicationem. Omne peccatum, quod-
cumque fecerit homo, extra corpus est : qui autem

19 fornicatur, in corpus suum peccat. An nescitis quo-
niam membra vestra templum sunt Spiritus sancti,
qui in vobis est, quern habetis a Deo, et non estis

20vestri? Empti enim estis pretio magno. Glorificate,
et portate Deum in corpore vestro.

ments among you. Why do you not rather
take wrong? why do you not rather suffer
fraud? sBut yourselves do wrong and de-
fraud: and that to the brethren. 9Know
you not that the unjust shall not possess the
kingdom of God? Do not err, Neither
fornicators, nor servers of Idols, nor adul-
terers, nor the effeminate, nor the liers with,
mankind, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous,
nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners,
shall possess the kingdom of God. uAnd
these things certes you were: but you are
washed, but you are sanctified, but you are
justified in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.

|3 All things are lawful for me, but all
things are not expedient. All things are
lawful for me, but I will be brought under
the power of none. 13 The meat to the belly,
and the belly to the meats: but God will
destroy both it and them : and the body not
to fornication, but to our Lord, and our Lord
to the body. 14But God both hath raised
up our Lord, and will raise up us also by his
power. uKnow you not that your bodies
are the members of Christ? Taking there-
fore the members of Christ, shall I make
them the members of an harlot ? God forbid.
16 Or know you not, that he which cleaveth
to an harlot, is made one body? For they
shall be, saith he, two in one flesh. 17 But he
that cleaveth to our Lord, is one spirit.
^ Flee fornication. Every sin whatsoever a
man doeth, is without the body: but he that
doth fornicate, sinneth against his own body.
19 Or know you not that your members are
the temple of the holy Ghost which is in you,
whom you hnve of God, and you are not
your own? 2'For you are bought with a
great price. Glorify and bear God in your
body.

And concerning the things whereof you
wrote to me: It is good for a man not to
touch a woman. 2But becauseof fornication
let every man have his own wife, and let
every woman have her own husband. ' Let
the husband render his debt to t lie wife:
and the wife also in like manner to her hus-
band. 4Tlio woman hath not power of her
own body: but her husband. .And in like
manner the man also bath not power of his
own body.- but the woman. 'Defraud not
one another, except perhaps by consent for a
time, that you may give yourself to prayer 1
and return again together, lest Satan tempt
you for your incontinenoy. 'But I say this
by indulgence, not by 1 ommandment ' lor

not subject to servitude in such ; but in peace

how knowest thou man, if thou shalt save

prepuce is nothing: but the observation
of the commandments of God. ^ Every one
in the vocation that he was called, in it let
him abide. :1 Wast thou called being a bond-
man ? care not lor it : but and if thou canst
be made free, use it rather. "For he that in
our Lord is called, being a bondman, is the

Quod si discesserit, mancrc innuptam, aut viro suo I I
rcconciliari. Et vir uxorem non dimittat.

Nam ceteris ego dico, non Dominus. Si quis frater 12
uxorem habet infidelem, et haec consentit habitarc cum
illo, non dimittat illam. Et hi qua mulicr fidelis habet 13
virum infidelem, et hie consentit habitare cum ilia,
non dimittat virum: sanctificatus est enim vir infidelis 14
per muliercm fidclem, et sanctificata est mulier infidelis
per virum fidclem: alioquin iilii vestri immundi cssent,
nunc autem sancti sunt. Quod si infidelis disccdit, 15
discedat: non enim servituti subjectus est frater. aut
soror in hujusmodi: in pace autem vocavit nos Deus.
Undc enim scis, mulier, si virum Bahrain facies? aut 16
unde scis, vir, si mulierem salvam facies ? Nisi 17
unicuiquc sicut divisit Dominus, unumquemque sicut
vocavit Deus, ita ambulet, et sicut in omnibus Ecclesiis
doceo. Circumcisus aliquis vocatus est? non adducat iS
pneputium. In praeputio aliquis vocatus est ? non
circumcidatur. Circumcisio nihil est, et prrcputium 19
nihil est : sed observatio mandatorum Dei. Unus- 20
quisque in qua vocatione vocatus est, in ca permaneat.
Servus vocatus es? non sit tibi cura;: sed et si potes 21
fieri liber, magis uterc. Qui enim in Domino vocatus 22
est servus, libcrtus est Domini : similiter qui liber
vocatus est, servus est Christi. Pretio empti estis, 23
nolite fieri scrvi hominum. Unusquisque in quo 24
vocatus est, fratres, in hoc permaneat apud Deum.

De virginibus autem pneceptum Domini non habeo: 25
consilium autem do, tamquam miscricordiam eonse-
cutus a Domino, ut sim fidelis. Existimo ergo hoc 26
bonum esse propter instantem necessitatcm, quoniam
bonum est homini sic esse. Alligatus es uxori? noli 27
quarere solutioncm. Solutus es ab uxore ? noli
qmerere uxorem. Si autem acccperis uxorem? non 28
peccasti. Et si nupserit virgo, non peecavit: tribula-
tioncm tamen carnis habebunt hujusmodi. Ego autem
vobis parco. Hoc itaquc dico. fratres: Tempus breve 29
est: rcliquum est, ut et qui habent uxorcs, tamquam
non habentes sint: et qui llcnt, tamquam non ilentcs: 30
ctqui gaudent, tamquam non gaudentes: etquiemunt.
tamquam non possidentcs: et qui utuntur hoc mundo, 31
tamquam non utantur : preterit enim figure hujus
mundi. Volo autem vos sine solicitudine esse. Qui 32
sine uxore est, Bolicitua est qua Domini sunt, quo-
modo placeat Deo. Qui autem cum uxore est, solicitus 33
est qua sunt mundi, quomodo placeat uxori, et divisus
est. Et mulier innupta. et virgo, cogitat qua Domini 34
sunt, ut sit sancta corpore et spiritu. Qua autem

impta est, cogitat qua? sunt mundi, quomodo placeat

35 viro. Porro hoc ad utilitatem vestram dico: non ut
laqueum vobis injiciam, sed ad id, quod honestum est,
et quod facultatem praabeat sine impedimento Domi-

36 num obsecrandi. Si quis autem turpern se videri
existimat super virgine sua, quod sit superadulta, et
ita oportet fieri : quod vult faciat : non peccat, si

37 nubat. Xam qui statuit in corde suo firmus, non
habens necessitatem, potestatem autem habens sua?

2)8 virginem suam, bene facit. Igitur et qui matrimonio
jungit virginem suam, bene facit: et qui non jungit,
melius facit.

39 Mulier alligata est legi quanto tempore vir ejus
vivit: quod si dormierit vir ejus, liberata est: cui vult

40 nubat : tantum in Domino. Beatior autem erit si sic
permanserit secundum meum consilium : puto autem
quod et ego Spiritum Dei habeam.

omnes scientiam habemus. Scientia inflat, charitas

nondum cognovit quemadmodum oporteat eum scire.

3 Si quis autem diligit Deum, hie cognitus est ab eo.

4 De escis autem, quae idolis immolantur, scimus quia
nihil est idolum in mundo, et quod nullus est Deus,

she that is married, tliinketh on the things
that pertain to the world, how she may please
her husband. ^And this I speak to your
profit : not to cast a snare upon you, but to
that which is honest, and that may give you
power without impediment to attend upon
our Lord. 33 But if any man think that he
seemeth dishonoured upon his virgin, for that
she is past age, and if it must so be, let him
do that he will. He sinneth not if she marry.
3'~Forhethat hath determined in his heart
being settled, not having necessity, but having
power of his own will, and hath judged this
in his heart, to keep his virgin, doeth well.
33 Therefore both he that joineth his virgin
in matrimony,doeth well : and he that joineth
not, doeth better.

33 A woman is bound to the law so long
time as her husband liveth : but if her hus-
band sleep, she is at liberty: let her marry
to whom she will : only in onr Lord. 40 But
more blessed shall she be, if she so remain,
according to my counsel ; and I think that
I also have the Spirit of God.

And concerning those things that are
sacrificed to Idols, we know that we all
have knowledge. Knowledge pufleth up :
but charity edifieth. -And if any man think
that he knoweth something, he hath not yet
known, as he ought to know. 3But if any
man love God, the same is known of him.
1 But as for the meats that are immolated to
Idols, we know that an Idol is nothing in
the world, and that there is no God but one.
6 For although there be that are called gods,
either in heaven, or in earth (for there are
many gods, and many lords), ° vet to us there
is one God, the Father, of whom all things,
and wc unto him : and one Lord, Jesus
Christ, by whom all things, and we by him.
'But there is not know ledge in all. For
some until this present with a conscience of
the Idol, eat as a thing sacrificed to Idols:
and their conscience being weak, is polluted.

t meat doth not commend us to God.

if we tat not, shall we lack. »Bul take heed

Are not you my work in our Lord? 2And
if to others I bo not an Apostle, but yet
to yon I am: for you are the seal of my
Apostlesliip in our Lord. 3 My defence to
tbeni that examine me is this: 4lfave not
we power to eat and drink ? • Ilavc we not
power to lead about a woman a sister, as
also the rest of the Apostles, and our Lord's
brethren, and Cephas? 6 Or I only and Bar-
nabas have not we power to do this ? ' Who-
ever playeth the soldier at his own charges?
Who planteth a vine, and eateth not ot the
fruit thereof? Who feedetli a Hock, and
eateth not of the milk of the flock ? 8 Speak
I these tilings according to man? Or doth
not the Law also say these things ? 9 For it is
written in the Law of Moyses, Thou shalt
not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth
out the corn. Why, hath God care of oxen?
10 Or for us certes doth he say it? For they
are written for us; because he that eareth,
ought to ear in hope: and lie that treadeth,
in hope to receive fruit. n If we have sown
unto you spiritual tilings, is it a great matter
if we reap your carnal tilings? 1: If other be
partakers of your power: why not we rather?
Howbeit, we have not used this power : but
we bear all things, lest we should give any
offence to the Gospel of Christ. u Know you
not that 1 1 icy which work in the holy place,
eat the things that are of the holy place:
and they that serve the altar, participate
with (lie altar? 14So also our Lord ordained
for them that preach the Gospel, to live of
the Gospel.

15 But I have used none of these. Neither
have I written t hese thing?, that they should
be so done in me : for it is good for me to
die rather, than that any man should make
my glory void. 16For and if I evangelize, it
is no glory to me: for necessity lieth upon
me: for woe is to me if 1 evangelize not.
1 I' '■•]• if I do this willingly, 1 have reward:
hut if against ni> « ill, a charge is committed
to mo. '"What is my reward then? That
preaching the Gospel, 1 yield the Gospel
without cost, that 1 abuse not my power in
the Gospel. 19For whereas I was free of all,
I made myself the sevvant of all: that 1
might gain the more. a'Andl became to the
.lews as a Jew, that I might gam the Jews;
'-' to them that are under the J.aw, as though
I were under the Law (whereas myself was
not under the Law) that 1 might gain them
that were under the Law; to them that were
without the Law, as though I were without
the Law (whereas 1 was not without the law
of God, hut was in the law of Christ), that 1
might gain them that were without the Law.
"To the weak I became weak, that 1 might
gain the weak. To all men 1 became all
things, thai I might save all. -1And I do all
tilings for the Gospel, that I may be made
partaker thereof.

':i Know you not that they that run in the
race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the
prize? So run that you may obtain. 25And
every one that striveth for the mastery, re-
fraineth himself from all things : and they
certes, that they may receive a corruptible
crown : but we an incorruptible. x I there-
fore so run, not as it were at an uncertain
thing^so I fight, not as it were beating the
air : r< but I chastise my body, and bring
it into servitude, lest perhaps when I
have preached to others, myself become
reprobate.

For I will not have you ignorant, brethren,
that our fathers were all uuder the cloud,
and all passed through the sea, 2and all in
Moyses were baptized in the cloud and in
the sea: 3and all did eat the same spiritual
food, and all drunk the same spiritual drink
(and they drunk of the spiritual rock that
followed them, and the rock was Christ,)
5 but in the more part of them God was not
well pleased. For they were overthrown in
the desert. 6 And these things were done in
a figure of us, that we be not coveting evil
things, as they also coveted. 'Neither be-
come ye Idolaters, as certain of them : as is
written: The people sat down to eat and
drink, and rose vp to plat/. 8 Neither let us
fornicate, as certain of them did fornicate,
and there fell in one day three and twenty
thousand. 9 Neither let us tempt Christ : as
certain of them tempted, and perished by the
serpents. 10 Neither do you murmur: ascer-
tain of them murmured, and perished by the
destroyer. n And all these tilings chanced to
them in figure: but they are written to our
correption, upon whom the ends of the world
are come. "Therefore he that thinketh
himself to stand, let him take heed lest lie
fall, uLet not tentation apprehend you.
but human: and God is faithful, who will
not suffer you to be tempted above that
which you are able : but will make also with
tentation issue, that you may bo able to
sustain.

14 For the which cause, my dearest, flee
from the serving of Idols. ''I npcuk as to
wise men: yourselves judge what I say.
10 The chalice of benediction which we do
bless: is it not the communication of the

break, ii it not the participation of the body

Lord, nnd of the table of devils. z Or do vre
emulate our Lord? Why, are we stronger
than he?

All things are lawful for me, but all tliines
are not expedient. -3 All tilings are lawful
for me, but all things do not edify. ^Let no
man seek his own, but another man's. ^All
that is sold in the shambles, eat: asking no
question for conscience. 1' The earth is our
Lord's, and the fulness thereof. -''If any
invite you of the infidels, and you will go :
eat of all that is set before you, asking no
question for conscience. :sBut if any man
say. This is immolated to Idols: do not eat
for his sake that shewed it, and forconscience:
-9 conscience, I say, not thine but t he other's.
For why is my liberty judged of another
man's conscience? w If 1 participate with
thanks : why am 1 blasphemed for that which
I give thanks for? n Therefore whether you
eat or drink, or do any other tiling, do all
things unto the glory of God. "Be without
offence to the Jews and to the Gentiles, and
to the Church of God: ;3us 1 also in all
things do please all men, not seeking that
which is profitable to myself, but which is to
many: that they may be saved.

Be ye followers of me, as I also of Christ.
-And I praise you, brethren, that in all things
you be mindful of me: and as I have de-
livered unto you, you keep my precepts.

;l And T will have you know, that the head
of every man is Christ : and the head of the
woman, is the man : and the head of Christ,
is God. ' Every man praying or prophesying
with his head covered: dishonesteth Ins
head. 'Bui every woman praying or pro-
phesying with her head not covered: dis-
nonesteth her head i for it is all one as if she
were made bald. ' For if a woman bo not
covered, let her bo polled ; but it'll be a foul
tiling for a woman to lie polled ormadebald :
let her cover her head. 'The man truly
ought not to cover his head, because he is the
image and glory of God, hut the woman is
the glory of the man. s For the man is not
of the woman, but the woman of the man.
9 For the man was not created lor t lie woman,
but the woman for the man. (,u Therefore
ought the woman to have power upon licr

head for the Angels.) " Hut yet neither the

man without the woman: nor the woman
without the man, in our Lord. I3 For as the
woman is of the man, so also the man by the
woman : hut all thuiL'S of (tod. " Yourselves
judge: doth it become a woman not covered
to pray unto GodP "Neither doth nature
it sell teaen you, that a man indeed it' he

for her, because hair is given her for a veil?

i J Hoc autem praecipio : non laudans quod non in
1 8 melius, sed in detenus convenitis. Primum quidem

convenientibus vobis in Ecclesiam, audio scissuras esse
J 9 inter vos, et ex parte credo. Xam oportet et haereses

esse, ut et qui probati sunt, manifesti fiant in vobis.

20 Convenientibus ergo vobis in unum, jam non est

21 Dominicam coenam manducare. Unusquisque enim
suam coenam presumit ad manducandum. Et alius

22 quidem esurit : alius autem ebrius est. Numquid
domos non habetis ad manducandum et bibendum?
aut Ecclesiam Dei contemnitis, et confunditis eos, qui
non habent? Quid dicam vobis: Laudo vos? in hoc
non laudo.

23 Ego enim accepi a Domino quod et tradidi vobis,
quoniam Dominus Jesus in qua nocte tradebatur,

24 accepit panem, et gratias agens fregit, et dixit :
Accipite, et manducate: hoc est corpus meum, quod
pro vobis traditur: hoc facite in mcam commemora-

25 tionem. Similiter et calicem, postquam ccenavit,
dicens : Hie calix novum testamentum est in meo
sanguine: hoc facite quotiescunque bibetis, in meam

26 commemoration em. Quotiescumque enim manduca-
bitis panem hunc, et calicem bibetis: mortem Domino

27 annunciabitis donee veniat. Itaque quicumque man-
ducaverit panem hunc, vel biberit calicem Domini

28 indigne, reus erit corporis et sanguinis Domini. Probet
autem seipsum homo: et sic de pane illo edat, et de

29 calice bibat. Qui enim manducat et bibit indigne,
judicium sibi manducat et bibit: non dijudicans corpus

30 Domini. Ideo inter vos multi infirmi et imbccilles, et

31 dormiunt multi. Quod si nosmetipsos dijudicarcmus,

32 non utique judicaremur. Dum judicamur autem, a
Domino corripimur, ut non cum hoc mundo damnemur.

33 Itaque, fratres mei, cum convenitis nd manducandum,

34 invicem expectate. Si quis esurit. domi manducct: ut

17 And this I command: not praising it
that you come together not to better, but to
worse. ls First indeed when you come to-
gether into the Church, I hear that there are
schisms among you, and in part 1 believe it.
19 For there must be heresies also : that they
also which are approved, may be made mani-
fest among you. "When you come there-
fore together in one, is it not now to eat our
Lord's supper. 21For every one taketh hi3
own supper before to eat. And one certes is
an hungred, and another is drunk. 2 Why,
have you not houses to eat and drink in? or
contemn ye the Church of God : and con-
found them that have not? What shall I
say to you ? praise I you in this ? I do not
praise you.

23 For I received of our Lord that which
also I have delivered unto you, that our Lord
Jesii9 in the night that he was betrayed,
took bread : 24and, giving thanks, brake, and
said : Take ye and eat, this is my body

■WHICH SHALL BE DELIVERED EOE YOU:

this do ye for the commemoration of me.
25 In like manner also the chalice after he
had supped, saying. This chalice is the

NEW TESTAMENT IN MY BLOOD : this do ye,

as often as you shall drink, for the com-
memoration of me. ^For as often as you
shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice,
you shall shew the death of our Lord, until
he come. 2/~ Therefore whosoever shall eat
this bread, or drink the chalice of our Lord
unworthily, he shall be guilty of the body
and of the blood of our Lord. ^.Butleta
man prove himself: and so, let him eat of
that bread, and drink of the chalice. ^For
he that eateth and drinketh unworthily,
eateth and drinketh judgment to himself,
not discerning the body of our Lord. ^There-
fore are there among you many weak and
feeble, and many sleep. 3113ut if we did
judge ourselves, we should not bo judged.
3: But whilst we are judged, of our Lord wo
are chastised : that with this world we be not
damned. 33 Therefore my brethren, when
you come together to eat, expect one another.
■* If any man be an hungred, let him eat at
home: that you come not together unto
judgment. .And the rest 1 will dispose when
I come.

And concerning spiritual tilings J will not
have you ignorant, brethren. 'Yon know
thai when you were heathen, you went to
dumb [doli according u you were led.

'Therefore I dp jrOO to understand that no
man speaking in the Spirit of <!od, laith

the word of knowledge according to the same
Spirit: 9to another, Faith in the same Spirit :
to another, the grace of doing cures in one
Spirit : '"toanother, the working of miracles:
to another, prophecy : to another, discerning
of spirits: to another, kinds of tongues: to
another, interpretation of languages. " And
all these tilings worketh one and the same
Spirit, dividing to every one according as he
Will.

'-For as the body is one, and hath many
members, and all the members of the body,
whereas they be many, yet are one body: so
also Christ. 13 For in one Spirit were we all
baptized into one, whether Jews or Gentiles,
or bondmen or free : and in one Spirit we
were all made to drink. M For t he body also
is not one member, but many. ls If the foot
should say, because 1 am not the hand, 1 am
not of the body: is it therefore not of the
body ? 1G And if the ear should say, because
I am not the eye, I am not of the body : is
he therefore not of the body? 17Jf the
whole body were the eye, where is the
bearing? ff the whole were the hearing:
where is the smelling? lsBut now God
hath set the members, every one of them
in the body as he would. ',J And if all were
one member, where were the body? MBut
now there are many members indeed, yet one
body. And the eye cannot say to the hand,
1 need not thy help; or again the head to
the feet, You are not necessary forme. -' But
much more those that seem to be the more
weak members of the body, are more neces-
sary: ^'and such as we think to be the baser
members of the body, upon them we put
more abundant honour: and those that are
our unhoneat parts, have more abundant
honetty. •And our honest parts need no-
thing: but God hath tempered the body,
giving to it that wanted the more abundant
honour, -'that there might be no schism in
the body, but the members together might
be careful one for another. '-'And if one
member suffer anything, all the members
suffer with it; or it one number do glory,
all the members rejoice with it. '-"'And you
are the body of Christ, and members of
member.

Spiritum datur sermo sapientia? ; alii autem sermo
Bcientiae secundum cundem Spiritum : alteri fides in 9
eodem Spiritu: alii gratia sanitatum in uno Spiritu:
alii operatio virtutum, alii prophetia, alii discretio 10
spirituum, alii genera linguarum, alii interpretatio
MTinonum. Haec autem omnia operatur unus atque 11
idem Spiritus, dividens singulis prout vult.

Sicut enim corpus unum est, et membra habet 12
multa, omnia autem membra corporis cum sint multa,
unum tamen corpus sunt: ita et Christus. Etenim in 13
uno Spiritu omnes nos in unum corpus baptizati
sumus, sive Judaei, sive Gentiles, sive servi, sivc liberi:
et omnes in uno Spiritu potati sumus. Nam et corpus 14
non est unum membrum, sed multa. Si dixerit pes: 15
Quoniam non sum manus, non sum de corpore: num
ideo non est de corpore? Et si dixerit auris: Quoniam 16
non sum oculis, non sum de corpore: num ideo non
est de corpore? Si totum corpus oculus, ubi auditus? 17
Si totum auditus, ubi odoratus? Nunc autem posuit 18
Deus membra, unumquodque eorum in corpore sicut
voluit. Quod si essent omnia unum membrum, ubi 19
corpus? Nunc autem multa quidem membra, unum 20
autem corpus. Non potest autem oculus dicere manui: 21
Opera tua non indigeo : aut iterum caput pedibus :
Non estis mihi necessarii. Sed multo magis qua? 22
videntur membra corporis infirmiora esse, necessariora
sunt: et qua) putamus ignobiliora membra esse cor- 23
poris, bis honorem abundantiorem circumdamus : et
qua? inhoncsta sunt nostra, abundantiorem lionestatem
liabcnt. Honesta autem nostra nullius cgent : sed 24
Deus temperavit corpus, ei, cui deerat, abundantiorem
tribuendo bonorem, ut non sit schisma in corpore, sed 25
idipsum pro invicem solicita sint membra. 1 \t si quid 26
patitur unum membrum. compatiuntur omnia membra:
sive gloriatur unum membrum. congaudent omnia
membra. Yos autem estis corpus Cnristi, et membra 27

Et quosdam quidem posuit Deus in Ecclcsia pri- 28

13 Si Unguis hominum loquar, et angelorum, charitatem
autem non habeam, factus sura velut ees sonans, aut

2 cymbalum tinniens. Et si habuero prophetiam. et
noverim mysteria omnia, et omnem scientiam: et si
habuero omnem fidem ita ut montes transferam, chari-

3 tatem autem non habuero, nihil sum. Et si dlstribuero
in cibos pauperum omnes facultates meas, et si tradidero
corpus meum ita ut ardeam, charitatem autem non
habuero, nihil mini prodest.

4 Charitas patiens est, benigna est : Charitas non

5 aemulatur, non agit perperam, non inflatur, non est
ambitiosa, non quaerit quse sua sunt, non irritatur, non

6 cogitat malum, non gaudet super iniquitate, congaudet

7 autem veritati : omnia suffert, omnia credit, omnia

8 sperat, omnia sustinet. Charitas numquam excidit:
sive prophetic evacuabuntur, sive linguae cessabunt,

9 sive scientia destruetur ; ex parte enim cognoscimus,

10 et ex parte prophetamus ; cum autem venerit quod

1 1 perfectum est, evacuabitur quod ex parte est. Cum
essem parvulus, loquebar ut parvulus, sapiebam ut
parvulus, cogitabam ut parvulus. Quando autem

1 2 factus sum vir, evacuavi qua? erant parvuli. Videmus
nunc per speculum in amigmate : tunc autem facie ad
faciem. Nunc cognosco ex parte: tunc autem cog-

13 noscam sicut et cognitus sum. Nunc autem manent,
fides, spes, charitas: tria hasc; major autem horum est
charitas.

14 Sectamini charitatem, aemulamini spiritalia: magis

2 autem ut prophetetis. Qui enim loquitur lingua, non
hominibus loquitur, sea Deo : nemo enim audit.

3 Spiritu autem loquitur mysteria. Nam qui prophetat,
hominibus loquitur ad asdificationem, et exhortationem,

4 et consolationem. Qui loquitur lingua, semctipsum

.ficat: qui autem prophetat, Ecclesiam Dei aedificat.

If I speak with the tongues of men and of
Angels, and have not charity : I am become
as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2And
if I should have prophecy, and knew all
mysteries, and all knowledge, and if I should
have all faith so that I could remove moun-
tains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And if I should distribute all my goods to
be meat for the poor, and if I should deli-
ver my body so that I burn, and have not
charity, it doth profit me nothing.

4 Charity is patient, is benign: Charity
envieth not, dealeth not perversely : is not
puffed up, 5 is not ambitious, seeketh not her
own, is not provoked to anger, thinketh not
evil : 6 rejoiceth not upon iniquity, but re-
joieeth with the truth : 7suffereth all things,
believeth all things, hopeth all things, beareth
all things. 8 Charity never falletli away:
whether prophecies shall be made void, or
tongues shall cease, or knowledge shall be
destroyed. 9For in part we know, and in
part we prophesy. luBut when that shall
come that is perfect, that shall be made void
that is in part. n When I was a little one, I
spake as a little one, I understood as a little
one, I thought as a little one. .But when I
was made a man, I did away the things
that belonged to a little one. 12 We see now
by a glass in a dark sort : but then face to
face. Now I know in part : but then I shall
know as also I am known. 13 And now there
remain, faith, hope, charity, these three; but
the greater of these is charity.

Follow Charity, earnestly pursue spiritual
things : but rather that you may prophesy.
2 For he that speaketh with tongue, speaketh,
not to men, but to God : for no man heareth.
Uut in spirit he speaketh mysteries. 3For
lie that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto
edification, and exhortation, and consolation.
4 lie that speaketh with tongues, edifieth
himself: but he that prophesict li, edifieth the
Church. 'And I would have you all to speak
with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For
greater is he that propbeeietn, than he that
speaketh with tongues ! unless perhaps he
interpret, that the Church may take edifica-
tion. f> But now, brethren, if I come to you

speaking with tongues, what shall I profit
you, unless 1 speak to you either in rcvela-

5 Scripturas : et quia visus est Cephae, et post hoc

from you ? name it unto you only ? 3' If any
man seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let
him know the things that 1 write to you, that
they are the commandments of our Lord,
38 But if any man know not, he shall not be
known. 3J Therefore, brethren, be earnest to
prophesy : and to speak with tongues prohibit
not. "K'JBut let all tilings be done honestly
and according to order among you.

And I do you to understand, brethren, the
Gospel which I preached to you, which also
you received, in the which also you stand, 2 by
the which also you are saved, after what
manner I preached unto you if you keep it,
unless you have believed in vain. 3For I
delivered unto you first of all which I also
received: tltat Christ died for our sins ac-
cording to the Scriptures: 4and that he was
buried, and that he rose again the third day,
according to the scriptures : 5 and that he
was seen of Cephas : and after that of the
eleven. 6Then was he seen of more than
five hundred brethren together: of which
many remain until this present, and some
are asleep. ' Moreover he was seen of James,
then of all the .Apostles. 8And last of all,
as it were of an abortive, he was seen also of
me. ,JFor I am the least of the Apostles,
who am not worthy to be called an Apostle,
because I persecuted the Church of God.
10 But by the grace of God I am that which
I am : and his grace in me hath not been
void, but I have laboured more abundantly
than all they : yet not I, but the grace of God
with me. llFor whether I, or they, so we
preach, and so you have believed.

12 But if Christ be preached that he is risen
again from the dead, how do certain among
you say, that there is no resurrection of the
dead? 13And if there be no resurrection of
the dead, neither is Christ risen again. u And
if Christ be not risen again, then vain is our
preaching, vain also is your fuith : 15 and we
are found also false witnesses of God; be-
cause we have given testimony against God,
that he hath raised up Christ, whom lie hath
not raised up, if the dead rise not again.
16 For if the dead rise not again, mil her is
Christ risen again. '''And it Christ bo not
risen again, vain is your faith, for yet | oil
are in jour sins. B Then they also that are
in Christ, are perished. "If in this
life only we be hoping m Christ, wo are more
miserable than all men.

Until he put <i/l hit enemies under hit feet,
-"And the enemy death shall be destroyed

are subdued to him: Undoubtedly, except
him that subdued all things unto him. ■ And
when all things shall be subdued to him:
then the Son also himself shall be subject to
him that subdued all things unto him, that
God may be all iu all.

23 Otherwise what shall they do that are
baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not
again at all? ^Why also are they baptised
for them? why also are we in danger every
hour? 31 I die daily by your glory, brethren,
which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. ;!- If
(according to man) I fought with beasts at
Fphesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead
rise not again ? Let us eat and drink, for to
morrow we shall die. :u lie not seduced,
Evil communications corrupt good manners.
34 Awake ye just, and sm not; for some have
not the kuowledge of God, I speak to your
shame.

35 But some man saith, ITow do the dead
rise again? and with what manner of body
shall they come? ^Fool, that which thou
sowest is not quickened, unless it die first.
37 And that which thou sowest, not the body
that shall be, dost thou sow : but bare grain,
to wit, of wheat, or of some of the rest.
31 And God giveth it n body as he will : and
to every seed his proper body. ^Not all
flesh, is the same llesli : but one of men,
another of beasts, another of birds, another
of fishes. 4uAnd bodies celestial, and (bodies
terrestrial: but one glory of the celestial,
and another of the terrestrial, "One glory
of the sun, another glory of the moon, and
another glory of the stars. For star ilillereth
from star in glory i "so also the resurrection
of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it shall
rise in incorruption. 4;l It is sown in dis-
honour, it shall rise in glory. It is sown in
infirmity, it shall rise in power. " It ia ••own
a natural body: it shall rise a spiritual body.
If there be a natural body, there is also a
spiritual, **aa it is written, The first man
Adam UHU made into a living soul : the List

Adam into a quickening spirit. * Yet that
is not first which is spiritual, but that which
i* natural ; afterward that which is spiritual.
"The first man of earth, earthly ; the second

man from heaven, heavenly. "Such ti-
the earthly, such also are the earthlv; and
such as the heavenly, such also are the hea-
venly. '' Therefore as we have borne the

image of the earthly, let as hear also the

[mage of the beav< nly. "This I say, brethren,
that flesh and blood cannot possess the
kingdom of God: neither shall corruption
possess incorruption.

51 Behold I tell you a mystery. "We shall
all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be
changed. 5- In a moment, in the twinkling
of an eye, at the last trumpet (for the trumpet
shall sound), and the dead shall rise again
incorruptible: and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must do on incor-
ruption : and this mortal do on immortality.
51 And when this mortal hath done on im-
mortality, then shall come to pass the saying
that is written, Death is swallowed tip in
victory. 55 Death, where is thy victory ?
Death, where is thy sting ? 56 And the sting
of death is sin : and the power of sin is the
Law. 5? But thanks be to God that hath given
113 the victory by our Lord Jesus Christ.
5S Therefore my beloved brethren, be stable
and unmoveable : abounding in the work of
our Lord always, knowing that your labour
is not vain in our Lord.

And concerning the collections that are
made for the saints, as I have ordained to
the Churches of Galatia, so do ye also. -In
the first of the Sabbath let every one of
you put apart with himself, laying up what
shall well like him : that not when I come,
then collect ions be made. 3And when I shall
be present : whom you shall approve by
letters, them will I send to carry your grace
into Jerusalem. 4And if it be worthy that
I also go, they shall go with me.

5 And I will come to you, when I shall have

through Macedonia. 6 And with you perhaps
I will abide, or will winter also : that you

for I hope that I shall abide with you some
little time, if our Lord will permit. 8 But I
will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost. 9For
a great door and evident is opened unto me :
and many adversaries.

10 And if Timothee come, see (hat he bo

God of all comfort, * who comfortetli us in all
our tribulation : tliat we also may be able to
comfort them that are in all distress, by the
exhortation wherewith we also are exhorted

abound in us: so also by Christ doth our
comfort abound. 6And whether we be in

toleration of the same passions which we
also do suffer : 'and our hope is firm for you :
knowing that as you are partakers of the
passions, so shall you be of the consolation

ourselves had the answer of death, that we be
not trusting in ourselves, but in God who
raiseth up the dead, 10 who hath delivered
and doth deliver us out of so great dangers :
in whom we hope that lie will yet also
deliver us, u you helping withal in prayer for
us, that by many men's persons, thanks for
that gift which is in us, may be given by
many in our behalf. ^For our glory is this,
the testimony of our conscience, that in sim-
plicity and sincerity of God, and not in carnal
wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have
conversed in this world : and more abun-
dantly towards you. BFor we write no
other things to you, than that you have read
and know. And I hope that you shall know
unto the end: uas also you have known us
in part, that we are your glory, as you also
our's in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 And in this confidence I would first have
come to you, that you might have a second
grace: 16and by you pass into Macedonia,
and again from Macedonia come to you, and
of you be brought on my way into Jewry.

'" Whereas, then, I was thus minded, did I
use lightness ? Or the things that I mind, do
I mind according to the flesh, that there be
with me, It is, and It is not J lsBut God is
faithful, because our preaching which was to
you, there is not in it, It is, and, It is not.
'JFor the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who by
us was preached among you, by me and
Sylvanus and Timothce, was not, // is, and,
It is not, but, It is, was in him. *° For all
the promises of God that are, in him It is:
therefore also by him. Amen to God, unto
our glory. 21 And lie that confirmctli us with
you in Christ, and that hath anointed us,

•For therefore also have I written that I
may know the experiment of you, whether
in all things you be obedient. '"And whom
you have pardoned anything, I also. For,
myself also that which I pardoned, if I par-
doned anything, for you in the person of
Christ, "that we bo not circumvented of
Satan ; for we are not ignorant of his cogita-
tions.

12 And when I was come to Troas for the
Gospel of Christ, and a door was opened
unto me in our Lord, UI had no rest in my
spirit, for that I found not Titus my brother,
but bidding them farewell, I went forth into
Macedonia. "And thanks be to God, who
always triumpheth us in Christ Jesus, and
nianifesteth the odour of his knowledge by
us in every place. 15 For we are the good
odour of Christ unto God in them that are
saved, and in them that perish. 16 To some
indeed the odour of death unto death: but
to others the odour of life unto life. Andto
these things who is so sufficient ? 17 For
we are not as very many, adulterating the
word of God, but of sincerity, and as of God,
before God, iu Christ we speak.

Begin we again to commend ourselves ? or
do we need (as certain) epistles of commenda-
tion to you, or from you? -Our epistle you
are. written in our hearts, which is known
and read of all men : 3 being manifested that
you are the epistle of Christ, ministered by
us, and written not with ink, but with the
Spirit of the living God: not in tables of
stone, but in the tables carnal of the heart.
4 And such confidence we have by Christ to
God : 'not that we be sufficient to think any-
thing of ourselves, as of ourselves : but our
sufficiency is of God. r' Who also hath made
us meet ministers of the new testament : not
in the letter, but in the Spirit. For the
letter killeth: but the Spirit quickeneth,
'And if the ministration of death, with letters
figured in stones, was in glory, so that the
children of Israel could not behold the faoe
of Moyses, for the glory of his countenance,
t hat is made void : s how shall not the minis-
tration of the Spirit lie more in gloryP '•' For
if the ministration of damnation he in glory :
much more the ministry of just ice aboundeih
in glory. "' For neither was it glorified,
which in this part was glorious, by reason of
the excelling glory. " For if that wlueh is
made void, is by glory: much more that
which abideth, is in glory.

* Having therefore such hope, we use much
confidence: "and not as Moyt a put a mi!
upon his face, licit the children of
might not heboid his face, which is made
void, "hut their eeuscs were didlcd. For

suflicicntia nostra ex Deo est: qui et idoncos nos fecit 6

in gloria; ita ut non possent intendere lilii Israel in

n, arc temporal: but those that be not
Been, ure eternal.

For we know that if our earthly house of
this habitation be dissolved, that! we have a
building of God, a house not made with hand,
eternal in heaven. -For in this also do we
groan, desirous to bo overelothed with our
habitation thai is from heaven: 'yet so, if we
be found clothed, not miked. 4 For we also
that are in this tabernacle groan, being bur-
dened : because we would not be spoiled, but
overelothed, that that which is mortal, might
be swallowed up of life. "And lie that
maketh us to this same, is God; who hath
given us the pledge of the Spirit. 'Being
bold therefore always, and knowing that
while we are in the body, we are pilgrims
from God, (/ for we walk by faith, and not by
sight) s but we are bold, and liavea good will
to be pilgrims rather from the body, and to
be present with our Lord. '-'And therefore
we endeavour, whether absent or present, to
him. I0 For we must all be manifested
before the judgment seat of Christ, that
every {one may receive the proper things of
the body, according as he hath done, either
good or evil.

11 Knowing therefore the fear of our Lord,
we use persuasion to men: hut to God we
are manifest. And 1 hope also that in your
consciences we are manifest. BWe com-
mend not ourselves again to you, but give
you occasion to glory for us: that you may
have against them that glory in face, and not
in heart. " for whether we exceed in mind,
to God: or whether we be sober, to you.
I1 For the charity of Christ urgeth us:
judging this, thai if one died for all. then all
were dead; "and Christ died for all; that
they also which live, may not now live to
themselves, but to him that died for them
and rose again. "Therefore we from hence-
forth know no man according to the flesh.
And if we have known Christ according to
the flesh; but now we know him no more.

'"If then any be in Christ a new creature :
the old are passed, behold all things are made
new; lsbut all of God, who hntli reconciled
us to himself by Christ : and hath given us
the ministry of reconciliation. ''For God
inde. d was in Christ, reconciling the world to
himself, not imputing to them their tins, and
hath put in us the word of reconciliation.
* For Christ therefore we are legates, God
as it were exhorting by us. For Christ yre
ch you, he reconciled to God. :l]lnn
thai Knew no sin, for us he made sin: that
we might he made the justice of God in him.

And we helping do exhort, that you receive
not the grace of (;<>d in vain. (: For ho

thee. Behold, now is the time acceptable :
behold now the day of salvation ;) 3 to no man
giving any offence, that our ministry be not
blamed: 4 but in all things let us exhibit
ourselves as the ministers of God, in much
patience, in tribulations, in necessities, in
distresses, 5 in stripes, in prisons, in seditions,
in labours, in watchings, in fastings, cin
chastity, in knowledge, in longanimity, in
sweetness, in the holy Ghost, in charity not
feigned, " in the word of truth, in the virtue
of God, by the armour of justice on the right
hand and on the left, 8 by honour and dis-
honour, by infamy and good fame: as se-
ducers, and true : as they that are unknown,
and known: 9 as dying, and behold we live :
as chastened, and not killed : 10as sorrowful,
but always rejoicing : as needy, but enriching
many : as having nothing, and possessing all
things.

11 Our mouth is open to you, O Corinthians,
our heart is dilated. u You are not straitened
in us : but in your own bowels you are
straitened. 13But having the same reward
(I speak as to my children), be you also
dilated. u Bear not the yoke with infidels.
For what participation hath justice with
iniquity? or what society is there between
light and darkness? 15And what agreement
with Christ and Belial? or what part hath
the faithful with the infidel? 1GAnd what
agreement hath the temple of God with
Idols? For you are the temple of the living
God ; as God saith, That I will dtvell, and
walk in them, and ivill be their God: and
they shall be my people. " For the which
cause, Go out of the midst of them, and
separate yourselves, saith our Lord, and
touch not the unclean : and I will receive
you; liand I will be a father to you: and
you shall be my sons and daughters, saith

rejoiced the more. B For although I made
you sorry in an epistle, it repenteth me not :
albeit it repented me, seeing tliat the same

you sorry. 9 Now I am glad : not because
you were made sorry, but because you were
made sorry to penance. Tor you were made
sorry according to God, that in nothing you
should Buffer detriment by us. Iu For the
sorrow that is according to God, worketh
penance unto salvation that is stable : but
the sorrow of the world worketh death.
51 For behold this very thing, that you were
made sorry according to God, how great
carefulness it worketh in you: yea defence,
yea indignation, yea fear, yea desire, yea
emulation, yea revenge; in all things yon
have shewed yourselves to be undented in
the matter. "Therefore although 1 wrote to
you, not for him that did the injury, nor for
him that suffered: but to manifest our care-
fulness that we have for you before God,
1:1 therefore we are comforted;' but in our
consolation, wc did the more abundantly
rejoice upon the joy of Titus, because his
spirit was refreshed of all you. u And if to
him I gloried anything of you, I am not
confounded : but as we spake all things
to you in truth, so also our glorving that
was to Titus, is made a truth, i5and his
bowels are more abundantly toward you:
remembering the obedience of you all, how
with fear and trembling you received him.
16 1 rejoice that in all things 1 have confidence
in you.

And we do you to understand, brethren,
the grace of God, that i> given in the churches
of Macedonia, s that in much experience of
tribulation they had abundance of joy, and
their verj deep poverty abounded unto the
riches of their simplicity, •' for according to
their power (I give them testimony) and

above their power they were willing, 'with

much exhortation requesting us the grace
and communication or the ministry that is

done toward the saints. ''And not as we
hoped, hut their own selves they gave, first
to our Lord, then to us by the will of God :
G insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he
began, so also he would perfect m you this
grace also. ' Hut asm all things you abound

in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all

toward us, that in this grace also you may
abound. "I speak not as commanding: but

1 1 sed et velle coepistis ab anno priore : nunc vero et facto
perficite : ut quemadmodum promptus est animus
voluntatis, ita sit et perficiendi ex eo, quod habetis.

12 Si enim voluntas prompta est, secundum id, quod
habet, accepta est, non secundum id, quod non habet.

1 3 Xon enim ut aliis sit remissio, vobis autem tribulatio,

modicum, non minoravit.

16 Gratias autem Deo, qui dedit eandem solicitudinem

17 pro vobis in corde Titi, quoniam exhortationem quidem
suscepit: sed cum solicitior esset, sua voluntate pro-

1 8 fectus est ad vos. Misimus etiam cum illo fratrem,

rich. 10And in this point I give counsel:
for this is profitable for you, which have
begun not only to do, but also to be willing,
from the year past : " but now perform ye
it also indeed : that as your mind is prompt
to be willing, so it may be also to perform, of
that which you have. ^For if the will be
prompt: it is accepted according to that
which it hath, not according to that which it
hath not. 13 For not that other should have
ease, and you tribulation : but by an equality.
14 Let in this present time your abundance
supply their want : that their abundance
also may supply your want, that there be an
equality, u as it is written : He that had
■much, abounded not : and he that had little,
wanted not.

16 And thanks be to God, that hath given
the self-same carefulness for you in the heart
of Titus, 17for that he admitted indeed ex-
hortation : but being more careful, of his own
will lie went unto you. 18We have sent also
with him the brother, whose praise is in the
Gospel through all the churches : 19 and not
only that, but also he was ordained of the
churches fellow of our peregrination, for this
grace which is ministered of us to the glory
of our Lord, and our determined will:
- 'avoiding this, lest any man might reprehend
us in this fulness that is ministered of us.
-1 For we provide good things, not only before
God, but also before men. --And we have
sent with them our brother also, whom we
have proved in many tilings often to be care-
ful : but now much more careful, for the
great confidence in you, a either for Titus
which is my fellow and coadjutor toward
you, or our brethren Apostles of the churches,
the glory of Christ. -' The declaration there-
fore which is of your charity and our glorying
for you, declare ye toward them in the face
of the churches.

For concerning the ministry that is done
toward the saints, ii 11 superfluous for me to

huh id, he gone to the poor: his justice re-

will augment, the increases of the fruits
of your justice: "that being enriched in
all things, you may abound unto all sim-

to Cod. '-Because the ministry of this
office doth not only supply those things
that the saints want, but abouncleth also
by many thanksgivings in our Lord, la by
tho proof of this ministry, glorifying God
in the obedience of your confession unto
tho Gospel of Christ, and in the simplicity
of communicating unto them, and unto all,

in you. '• Thanks be to God for Lis un-

And I Paul myself be?occh you by the
mildness and modesty of Christ, who in
presence indeed am humble among you, but
absent am bold on you. -But I beseech you,
that being present I need not be bold by that
confidence wherewith I am thought to be
bold against some: which think us as though
we walk according to the flesh. 'For walking

in the flesh, we war not according to the
flesh. ' For the weapons of our warfare arc
not carnal: but mighty to God unto the
destruction of munitions, destroying coun-
sels,''and all loftiness extolling itself against
the knowledge of God, and bringing into
captivity all understanding unto the obe-
dience of Christ, 'and having in a readiness
to revenge all disobedience, when your obc-

dience shall be fulfilled. 'See the things that

are according to appearance. If any man
have alliance in himself, that he is Christ's:
let him think this again with himself, that
as he is Christ's, so we also. 'For ana if I

should glory somewhat more of our power,
which our Lord hath given us unto educa-
tion, and not to your destruction, 1 shall
not be ashamed. "But that 1 may not be

our measure : but according to the measure

of the rule, which God hath measured to us,
a measure to reach even unto you. 14 For
not, as though we reached not unto you, do
we extend ourselves beyond. For we are
come as far as to you in the Gospel of Christ ;
u not glorying above measure in other men's
labours : but having hope of your faith
increasing, to be magnified in you according
to our rule abundantly, 16yea unto those
places that are beyond you, to evangelize, not
in another man's rule, to glory in those things
that are prepared before. l;But he that
glorieth, let him glory in our Lord. 13For
not he thatcommendeth himself, the same is
approved : but whom God commendeth.

Would God you could bear some little of
my folly : but do ye also support me : 2 for I
emulate you with the emulation of God. For
1 have despoused you to one man, to present
you a chaste virgin unto Christ. 3But I
fear lest, as the serpent seduced Eve by his
subtlety, so your senses may be corrupted,
and fall from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he that conieth, preach another Christ
whom we have not preached, or you receive
another spirit whom you have not received, or
another Gospel which you have not received,
you might well suffer it. 5For I suppose
that I have done nothing less than the great
Apostles. 6For although rude in speech, yet
not in knowledge; but _in all things we are
made manifest to you. 7 Or did I commit a
sin, humbling myself, that you might be
exalted? because 1 evangelized unto you the
Gospel of God gratis? 8 Other churches I
spoiled, taking a stipend, for your ministry.
,J And when 1 was witli you, and had need,
I was burdenous to none : for that which I
wanted, the brethren supplied that came
from Macedonia: and in ull tilings I have
kept mvself without burden to you, and will
keep. 10The truth of Christ is in me, that
this glorying shall not be infringed toward
me in the countries of Achaia. " Where-
fore? because I love you not? God doth
know. I213ut that which 1 do, 1 will also do,
♦ hat I may cut away the occasion of them
that desire occasion: that, in that which
they glory, they may bo found even like us.
13 For such false apostles arc crafty workers,
transfiguring themselves into Apostles of
CliriHt. "And no marvel: for Satan him-
self transfigure! h himself into an Angel of
light. '• it h no great matter therefore if hit

ministers be transfigured as the ministers of

justice: whose end shall bo according to
their works.

tatibus, in persecutionibus, in angustiis pro Christo:
cum enira infirmor, tunc potens sum.

1 1 Factus sum insipiens, vos me coegistis. Ego enim
a vobis debui commendari : nihil enim minus fui ab iis,
qui sunt supra modum Apostoli : tametsi nihil sum :

1 2 signa tamen Apostolatus mei facta sunt super vos in
omni patientia, in signis, et prodigiis, et virtutibus.

1 3 Quid est enim, quod minus babuistis prce ceteris Ec-
clesiis, nisi quod ego ipse non gravavi vos ? Donate

I4mihi hanc injuriam. Ecce tertio hoc paratus sum

15 filii parentibus thesaurizare, sed parentes filiis. Ego
autem libentissime impendam, et superimpendar ipse
pro animabus vestris: licet plus vos diligens, minus
diligar.

1 6 Sed esto : ego vos non gravavi : sed cum essem astutus,

17 dolo vos cepi. Numquid per aliquem eorum, quos

18 misi ad vos, circumveni vos? Rogavi Titum, et misi
cum illo fratrem. Xumquid Titus vos circumvenit ?
nonne eodem spiritu ambulavimus ? nonne iisdem

vos? Coram Deo in Christo loquimur: omnia autem,

enim ne forte cum venero, non quales volo, inveniam
vos: et ego inveniar a vobis, qualem non vultis: ne
forte contentiones, aemulationcs, animositates, dis-
s<\-nsiones, detractiones, susurrationes, inflationes, se-

21 ditiones sint inter vos: ne iterum cum venero, hu-

persecutions, in distresses for Christ ; for
when I am weak, then am I mighty.

11 1 am become foolish : you hare compelled
me. For I ought to have been commended
of you : for I have been nothing less than
they that are above measure Apostles : al-
though I am nothing. a Yet the signs of my
Apostleship have been done upon you in all
patience, in signs and wonders and mighty
deeds. 13For what is there that you have
had less than the other churches : but that
I myself have not burdened you ? Pardon
me this injury. 14 Behold, now the third time
I am ready to come to you : and I will not
be burdenous unto you. For I seek not the
things that are your's : but you. For neither
ought the children lay up treasures for the
parents, but the parents for the children.
uBut I most gladly will bestow, and will
myself moreover be bestowed for your
souls : although loving you more, I am loved
less.

16 But be it so : I have not burdened you :
but being crafty, I took you by guile. '' Have
I circumvented you by any of them whom I
sent to you ? ls I requested Titus, and I sent
with him a brother. Did Titus circumvent
you ? walked we not with one spirit ? not in
the self-same steps? 190f old think you
that we excuse ourselves to you? Before
God, in Christ we speak : but all things (my
dearest) for your edifying. -"For I fear lest
perhaps when I come, I find you not such as
I would : and I be found of you, such an one
as you would not ; lest perhaps contentions,
emulations, stomachings, dissensions, detrac-
tions, whisperings, swellings, seditions, be
among you ; 21 lest again when I come, God
humble me among you: and I mourn many
of them that sinned before, and have not
done penance for the uncleanncss and forni-
cation and incontinency that they have com-
mitted.

T.o this the third time T come unto you \

10 For do I now use persuasion to men, or to
God? Or do I seek to please men? If I
yet did please men, I should not be the
servant of Christ.

11 For I do you to understand, brethren,
the Gospel that was evangelized of me, that
it is not according to man. 12For neither did
I receive it of man, nor learn it : but by the
revelation of Jesus Christ.

13 For you have heard my conversation
sometime in Judaism, that above measure I
persecuted the Church of God, and expugned
it, 14 and profited in Judaism above many of
mine equals in my nation, being more abun-
dantly an emulator of the traditions of my
fathers. ^But when it pleased him that
separated me from my mother's womb, and
called me by his grace, to reveal his son in
me, 16 that I should evangelize him among
the Gentiles, incontinent I condescended not
to flesh and blood, 1? neither came I to Jeru-
salem to the Apostles my antecessors : but I
went into Arabia, and again I returned to
Damascus. 13Then, after three years I came
to Jerusalem to see Peter: and tarried with
him fifteen days. 19 But other of the Apostles
saw I none : saving James the brother of our
Lord, s" And the things that I write to you :
behold before God, that I lie not. :l After
that, I came into the parts of Syria and
Cilicia. 2JAnd I was unknown by sight to
the churches of Jewry, that were in Christ :
23 but they had heard only. That lie which
persecuted us sometime, doth now evangelize
the faith which sometime he expunged:
*4 and in me they glorified God.

Then after fourteen yean I went up acain
to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus
also with me. 2 And I went up according to
revelation: and conferred with them the
Gospel which I preach among the Gentiles,
but apart with them that seemed to be some-
thing, leal perhaps in vain I should run or.
had run. 3 J'ut neither Titua which was
with me, whereas he was a Gentile, was com-
pelled to be circumcised: 'but because of
the false brethren craftily brought in, which
craftily came in to espy our liberty thai \\e
have in Chris! Jeans, thai they might bring
u into servitude. 'To whom we yielded

James and Cephas and John, which seemed
to be pillars, gave to mo anil Uarnabas (lie
right hands of society: that we unto the
Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision :
10 only that wo should be mindful of the
poor : the which same thing also I was careful
to do.

11 And when Cephas was come to Antioohe,
I resisted him in face, because he was repre-
hensible. '-For before that certain came
from .lames, he did eat with the Gentiles:
but when they were come, he withdrew and
separated himself, fearing them that were of
the circumcision. 13 And to his simulation
consented the rest of the Jews, so that Bar-
nabas also was led of them into that simula-
tion. "But when I saw that they walked
not rightly to the verity of the Gospel, I said
to Cephas before them all: If thou being a
Jew, livest Gentile-like and not .ludaically :
how dost thou compel the Gentiles to
Judai/.e.

15 We are by nature Jews, and not "of the
Gentiles, sinners. )6But knowing that man
is not justified by the works of the Law, but
by the faith of Jesus Christ: we also believe
in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by
the faith of Christ, and not by the works of
the Law : for the which cause, by the works
of the Law no fleah shall be justified. ,;,Biit
if seeking to be justified in _ Christ, ourselves
also be found sinners: is Christ then a
minister of sin? God forbid. ls For if I
build the same things again which I have
destroyed, I make myself a prevaricator.
',J For 1 by the Law, am dead to the Law,
that I may live to God: with Christ I am
nailed to t he cross. '-" And 1 live, now not I :
but Christ liveth in me. And that that 1
live now in the flesh, I live in the faith oft lie
son of God, who loved me, and delivered
himself for me. -1 1 east not away the grace
of God. For if justice be by the Law, then
Christ died in vain.

Osenseless Galatians, whohath bewitched
vou, not to obey the truth, before whose eyes
Jesus Christ whs proscribed, being crucified
among you? -This only I would learn of
you, By the works of the Law, did you re-

justiiicabitur omnia caro. Quod si quserentes justili- 17

Scriptum est enim: Maledictus omnis, qui non per-
manserit in omnibus, quae scripta sunt in libro legis, ut

11 faciat ea. Quoniam autem in lege nemo justificatur apud

12 Deum, manifestum est: quia Justus ex fidevivit. Lex
autem non est ex fide, sed, Qui fecerit ea, vivet in illis.

13 Christus nos redemit de maledicto legis, factus pro
nobis maledictum: quia scriptum est: Maledictus

14 omnis qui pendet in ligno: ut in Gentibus benedictio
Abraham fieret in Christo Jesu, ut pollicitationem Spiri-
tus accipiamus per fidem.

16 nat. Abrahae dicta? sunt promissiones, et semini ejus.
Non dicit: Et seminibus, quasi in multis: sed quasi

17 in uno: Et semini tuo, qui est Christus. Hoc autem
dico, testamentum confirmatum a Deo, quae post quad-
rin^rentos et trijrinta annos facta est Lex, non irritum

18 facit ad evacuandam promissionem. Nam si ex lege
hereditas, jam non ex promissione. Abrahae autem

19 per repromissionem donavit Deus. Quid igitur lex?
Propter transgressiones posita est donee veniret semen,
cui promiserat, ordinata per angelos in manu media-

20 toris. Mediator autem unius non est: Deus autem

21 unus est. Lex ergo adversus promissa Dei? Absit.
Si enim data esset lex, quae posset vivificare, vere ex

22 lege esset justitia. Sed concfusit scriptura omnia sub
peccato, ut promissio ex fide Jesu Christi daretur cre-

23 dentibus. Prius autem quam veniret fides, sub lege

written. Cursed he every one that abideih not
in all things that be written in the book of
the Law, to do them. a But that in the Law
no man is justified with God, it is manifest,
because The just liveth by faith. )2But the
Law is not by faith : but, He that doeth
those things shall live in them. 13 Christ hath
redeemed us from the curse of the Law,
being made a curse for us (because it is
written. Cursed is every one that hangeth on
a tree), 14that on the Gentiles the blessing
of Abraham might be made in Christ Jesus :
that we may receive the promise of the Spirit
by faith.

15 Brethren (I speak according to man) yet
a man's testament being confirmed no man
despiseth, or further disposeth. 16To Abra-
ham were the promises said, and to his seed.
He saith not, And to seeds, as in many : but
as in one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
1?And this I say, the testament being con-
firmed of God, the Law which was made
after four hundred and thirty years, maketh
not void to frustrate the promise. 18For if
the inheritance be of the Law, now not of
promise. But God gave it to Abraham by
promise. 19 Why was the Law then ? It was
put for transgressions, until the seed came
to whom he had promised : ordained by
Angels in the hand of a mediator. a' And a
mediator is not of one: but God is one.
21 Was the Law then against the promises of
God? God forbid. For if there had been a
Law given that could justify, undoubtedly
justice should be of the Law. KBut the
Scripture hath concluded all things under
sin : that the promise by the faith of Jesus
Christ might be given to them that believe.
21 But before the faith came, under the Law
we were kept shut up, unto that faith which
was to be revealed. 24 Therefore the Law
was our Pedagogue in Christ: that we may
be justified by faith. *JBut when the faith
came, now we are not under a pedagogue.
*For you arc all the children of God by faith
in Christ Jesus. ^For as many of you as
are baptized in Christ, have put on Christ.
MThere is not Jew nor Greek, there is not
bond nor free, there is not male nor female.
For all you are one in Christ Jesus. -"'And
if you he Christ's, then are you the seed of
Abraham, heirs according to promise.

of tin' flesh I evangelized to you heretofore:
"and your ten tat ion in my flesh you despised
not, neither rejected, but as an Angel ol God
you received me, as Christ Jesus. '■'Where
is then your blessedness? for 1 give you tes-
timony that if it could be done, you would
have plucked out your eyes, and have given
them to me. "Am I then become your
enemy, telling you the truth P ''They emulate
you not well: but they would exclude you,
that you might emulate them. ls But do you
emulate the good in good always : and not
only when I am present with you.

uMy little children, whom T travail withal
again, until Christ be formed in you. ^ And
I would be with you now, and change my
voice: because I am confounded in you.
21 Tell me you that will be under the Law,
have you not read the Law ? iJ For it is writ-
ten that Abraham had two sons: one of the
bond-woman, and one of the free-woman.
23 But he that of the bond-woman, was born
according to the flesh: and he that of the
free-woman, by the promise; -'which things
are said by an allegory. For theso are the
two testaments. The one from mount Sina,
gendering unto bondage: which is Agar,
(-'for Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which
hath affinity to that which now is Jerusalem)
and serveth with her children. -Y' But that
Jerusalem which is above, is free: winch is
our mother. '-"For it is written: /.'
//leu barren, that beareet not: break- forth
and rn/, ilml traoaileet not i became many

are the children of the desolate, more than
of her that hath a hiis/xind. * But we
brethren, according to Isaac, are the children
of promise. -915ut as then he that was born
ding to the flesh, persecuted him thai
was after the spirit : so now also. "But
what suit h the Scripture? Cast out thehond-
Woman and her son ; for the son of the bond-
Iranian shall not tie heir iri/h the son of the
free-woman. :" Therefore, brethren, we are
not the children of the bond-woman, but of
the five : by the freedom wherewith Christ
hath made us tree.

Stand, and be not holden in again with the
yoke of servitude. 3 Behold I Paul tell you
that if you be circumcised, Christ shallprollt
you nothing. 3And I testify again to every

in Christo Jesu neque circumcisio aliquid valet, neque
praeputium: sed fides, qua? per charitatem operatur.

adhuc praedico: quid adhuc persecutionem patior?

12 Ergo evacuatum est scandalum crucis. Utinarn et

13 Vos enim in libertatem vocati estis, fratres: tantum
ne libertatem in occasionem detis carnis, sed per

14 charitatem Spiritus servite invicem. Omnis enim lex
in uno sermone impletur: Diliges proximum tuum

15 sicut te ipsum. Quod si invicem mordetis, et comeditis:
i6videte ne ab invicem consumamini. Dico autem:

Spiritu ambulate, et desideria carnis non perficietis.

17 Caro enim concupiscit adversus spiritum: spiritus
autem adversus carnem : haec enim sibi invicem adver-

18 santur : ut non quaecumque vultis, ilia faciatis. Quod
si spiritu ducimini, non estis sub lege.

19 Manifesta sunt autem opera carnis : qua? sunt

20 fornicatio, immunditia, impudicitia, luxuria, idol-

21 asmulationes, ine, rixae, disscntiones, secta?, invidia',.

man circumcising himself, that lie is a debtor
to do the whole Law. 4 You are evacuated
from Christ, that are justified in the Law :
you are fallen from grace. 5 For we in spirit,
by faith, expect the hope of justice. 6For in
Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth
aught, nor prepuce : but faith that worketh
by charity. ^ You ran well, who hath hindered
you not to obey the truth ? 8 The persuasion
is not of him that calleth you. 9A little
leaven corruptetli the whole paste. 10 1 have
confidence in you in our Lord : that you will
be of no other mind: but he that troubleth
you, shall bear the judgment, whosoever he
be. u And as for me, brethren, if as yet I
preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer
persecution ? then is the scandal of the cross
evacuated. l- 1 would they were also cut off
that trouble you.

13 For you, brethren, are called unto liberty :
only make not this liberty an occasion to the
flesh, but by charity serve one another. 14For
all the Law is fulfilled in one word : Thou
shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 1515ut
if you bite and eat one another: take heed
you be not consumed one of another. 16 And
I say, walk in the spirit, and the lusts of the
flesh you shall not accomplish. ]7For the
flesh lusteth against the spirit : and the spirit
against the flesh ; for these are adversaries
one to another : that not what things soever
you will, these you do. 13But if you be led
by the spirit, you are not under the Law.

19 And the works of the flesh be manifest'
which are, fornication, uncleanness, impudi"
city, lechery, ai serving of Idols, witchcrafts
enmities, contentions, emulations, angers,
brawls, dissensions, sects, 2l envies, murders,
ebrieties, commessations. and such like ;
which 1 foretel you, as I have foretold you,
that they which do such tilings, shall not
obtain the kingdom of God. M But the fruit
of the Spirit is, Charity, joy, peace, patience,
benignity, goodness, longanimity, *• mildness,
faith, modesty, continency, chasl My. Against
such there is no law. -'And they th.it be
Christ's, have crucified their flesh with tin;
vices and concupiscences. * II we live in the
spirit, in thespirit also let us walk. '-'' Lei us

boar his own burden. 6 And let him that is
catechized in the word, communicate to him
that catechizeth him, in ull his goods. 'Be
not deceived, God is not mocked. 8 For what
tilings a man shall sow, those also shall he
reap. For he that soweth in his ilesh, of the
flesh also shall reap corruption ; but he that
BOweth in the spirit, of the spirit shall reap
life everlasting. 9 And doing good, let us not
fail. For in due time we shall reap not
failing. 10 Therefore whiles we have time,
let us work good to all, but especially to tho
domesticals of the faith.

"See with what manner of letters I have
written to you with mine own hand. '- Who-
soever will please in the llesh, they force you
to be circumcised, only that they may not
Buffer the persecution of the rrossof Christ.
13 For neither they that are circumcised, do
keep the Law : but they will have you to be
circumcised, that they may glory in vour
flesh. "But God forbid that 1 should glory,
saving in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ :
by whom the world is crucified to me, and I
to the world. '■'' For in Christ Jesus neither
circumcision availeth aught, nor prepuce, but
a new creature. "And whosoever shall
follow this rule, peace upon them, and mercy,
and upon the Israel of God. '7 From hence-
forth let no man be troublesome to me ; for I
bear the marks of our Lord Jesus in my body.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
your spirit, brethren. Amen.

remission of sins), according to the riches of
his grace. 8 Which hath superabounded in
us in all wisdom and prudence, 9 that he
might make known unto us the sacrament of
his will, according to his good pleasure,
which he purposed in himself, lu in the dis-
pensation of the fulness of times, to perfect
all things in Christ, that are in heaven and

called by lot : predestinate according to the
purpose of him that worketh all things, ac-

(the Gospel of your salvation :) in which also
believing you were signed with the holy
Spirit of promise, M which is the pledge of our
inheritance, to the redemption of acquisition,

is in our Lord Jesus, and love toward all the
saints: 16 cease not to give thanks for you,

father of glory, give you the spirit of wisdom
and of revelation, in the knowledge of him,

may know what the hope is of his vocation,
and what are the riches of the glory of his
inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the
passing greatness of his power toward us that
believe : according to the operation of the
might of his power, ^ which he wrought in
Christ, raising him up from the dead, and
setting him on his right hand in celestials,

14 For this cause I bow my knees to the

his Spirit in the inner man. 17 Christ to

not with the unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather reprove them. li!For the things

that is manifested, is light ; M for the which
cause he saith : Rise thou, that steepest, and
arise from the dead: and Christ will illu-

you walk warily ; not as unwise, but as wise :

evil. *'" Therefore become not unwise, but
understanding what is the will of God.

Christ, so also the women to their husbands

it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the
word, W that he might present to himself a
glorious Church, not having spot, or wrinkle,
or any such thing, but that it may be holy
and unspotted. ,28 So also men ought to
love their wives as their own bodies. He
that loveth his wife, loveth himself. sFor
no man ever hated his own flesh : but ho
nourisheth and cherisheth it, us also Christ
the Church: so because we be the members
of his body, of his flesh, and of his hones.

rejoice. Tor I know that tins shall fall
out to me unto salvation by your prayer and
the subministration of the Spirit of Jesus
Christ, ^according [to my expectation and
hope,becau8ein nothing shall I be confounded,
but in all confidence as always, now also
shall Christ be magnified in my body, whether
it be by life, or by death. 21 For unt_o me,
to live is Christ: and to die is gain. -And
if to live in the flesh, this unto me be the
fruit of the work, and what I shall choose I
know not. -'And I am straitened of the two:
having desire to be dissolved and to be with
Christ, a thing much more better; but to
abide in the flesh, necessary for you. -' And
trusting this, 1 know that I shall abide and
continue with you all, unto your furtherance
and joy of the faith : ^that your gratulation
may abound in Christ Jesus in me, by my
coming again to you.

26 Only converse ye worthy of the Gospel
of Christ : that whether when I come and
see you, or else be absent, I may hear of you
that you stand in one Spirit, of one mind
labouring together to the faith of the Gospel.
27 And in nothing be ye terrified of the ad-
versaries, which to them is cause of perdition :
but to you of salvation, and this of God :
-s for to you it is given for Christ, not only
that you believe in him, but aho that you
Buffer for him, '-''-' having the same combat like
as you have seen in me, and now have heard
of me.

Tf therefore there be any consolation in
Christ, if any solace of charity, if anysociety
of spirit, if any bowels of commiseration:
'fulfil my joy, that you be of one meaning,
having the Bameoharity,ofone mind, agreeing
in one ; 3nothingby contention, neither by
vain glory: but in humility, each counting
other better than themselves: ''everyone
not considering the tilings that are their own,
hut those that are other men's. -"For this
think in yourselves, which also in Christ
Jesus, 6 who when lie was in the form of
Cod, thought it_ no robbery, himself to bo
equal to Ood; "hut he axinanited himself,
tnkmg the form of a servant, made into the
similitude of men, and in shape found as
man. sIle humbled himself. made obedient

27 quod audieratis ilium infirmatum. .Nam et infirmatus
est usque ad mortem: sed Deus misertus est ejus: non
solum autem ejus, verum etiam et mei, ne tristitiam

28 super tristitiam haberem. Festinantius ergo misi illuin,
ut viso eo iterum gaudeatis, et ego sine tristitia sim.

29 Excipite itaque ilium cum omni gaudio in Domino, et

God, without reprehension in the midst of a
crooked and perverse generation, among
whom you shine as lights in the world:
16 containing the word of life to my glory in
the day of Christ, because I have not run in
vain, nor in vain laboured. '' But and if I
be immolated, upon the sacrifice and service
of your faith, I rejoice and congratulate with
you all. 18And the selfsame thing do you
also rejoice, and congratulate with me.

19 And I hope in our Lord Jesus, to send
Timothee unto you quickly, that I also may
be of good comfort, when I know the things
pertaining to you. * For I have no man so
of one mind that with sincere affection is
careful for you. 21For all seek the things
that are their own : not the things that are
Jesus Christ's. a And know ye an experiment
of him, that as a son the father, so hath he
served with me in the Gospel. ^This man
therefore I hope to send unto you, imme-
diately as I shall see the things that concern
me. M And I trust in our Lord that myself
also shall come to you quickly. 25 But I
have thought it necessary to send to you
Epaphroditus my brother and coadjutor and
fellow soldier, but your Apostle, ana minister
of my necessity. 25 Because indeed he had a
desire toward you all : and was pensive, for
that you had heard that he was sick. '2'" For
indeed he was sick even to death : but God
had mercy on him : and not only on him,
but on me also, lest I should have sorrow
upon sorrow. '-'"Therefore T sent him the
more speedily : that seeing him, you may re-
joice again, and I may be without sorrow.
29 Receive him therefore with all joy in our
Lord : and such intreat with honour ; 3" he-
cause for the work of Christ, he came to the
point of death: yielding hi? Life, that he might
fulfil that which on your part wanted toward
my service.

From henceforth, my brethren, rejoice in
our Lord. To write the same things unto
you, to me surely it is not tedious, and to you
it 19 necessarv. -See the dogs, sec the evil

with you. 10 And I rejoiced in our Lord ex-
ceedingly, that once at the length you have
reflourished to care for me, as you did also
care : but you were occupied. " I speak not
as it were for penury ; for I have learned, to
be content with the things that I have. BI
know both to be brought low, I know also to
abound : (everywhere, and in all things I
am instructed) both to be full, and to be
hungry, both to abound, and to suffer penury.

parted from Macedonia, no church com-
municated unto me in the account of gift
and receipt, but you only : 16 for unto Thes-
salonica also, once and twice you sent to my
use. 1? Not that I seek the gift, but I seek
the fruit abounding in your account. ls But
I have all tilings, and abound: I was filled
after I received of Epaphroditus the things
that you sent, an odour of sweetness, an ac-
ceptable host, pleasing God. 19 And my God
supply all your lack, according to his riches
in glory, in Christ Jesus. ^ And to God and
our father be glory, world without end.

We give thanks to God and the Father of
our Lord Jesus Christ always for you, praying:
4 hearing your faith in Christ Jesus, and the
love which you have toward all the saints,
'for the hope that is laid up for you in heaven,
which you have heard in the word of the
truth of the Gospel, fi that is come to you, as
also in t lie whole world it is, and fructifieth,
and growcth, even as in you, since that day
that you heard and knew the grace of God in
truth, 'as you learned of Epaphras our
dearest fellow-servant, who is a faithful
minister of Jesus Christ for you, 8 who also
hath manifested to us your love in spirit.
0 Therefore we also, from the day that we
heard it, cease not praying for you and
desiring, that you may be filled with the
knowledge of his will, in all wisdom, and
spiritual understanding: ''that you may walk
worthy of God, in all things pleasing: fructi-
fying in all good work, and increasing in the
k'nowledgeof God: u in all power strengthened
according to the might of his glory, in all
patience and longanimity with joy '-'giving
thanks to God and the Father, who hath
made us worthy unto the part of the lot of
the saints in the light : 13 wno hath delivered
us from the power of darkness, and hath
translated us into the kingdom of the son of
his love, " in whom we have redemption, the
remission of sins: "who is the image of the
invisible God, the first-born of all creature:
16 because in him were created all things in
heaven, and in earth, visible, and invisible,
whether Thrones, or Dominations, or Prin-
cipalities,or I'ott states : l;all by him, and in
him were created : and he is before all, and
all consist in him. HAnd he is the head of
the body, the Church, who is the beginning,
first born of the dead: that he may be in all
things holding the primacy: u because in
liim it hath well pleased, all fulness to in-
habit : a'and by him to reconcile all things
unto himself, pacifying by the blood of his
cross, whether the things in earth, or the
things that are in heaven.

alienated and enemies in sense, in evil works :

hie flesh by death, to present you holy and
immaculate, and blameless before him: 'if

the riches of the glory of this sacrament in
the Gentiles, which is Christ, in you the hope
of glory; ^whom we preach, admonishing
every man, and teaching every man in all
wisdom, that we may present every man per-
fect in Christ Jesus. M Wherein also I labour,
striving according to his operation which he
worketh in me in power.

For I will have you know, brethren, what
manner of care I have for you and for them
that are at Laodicia, and whosoever have not
seen my face in the flesh : 2that their hearts
may be comforted, instructed in charity, and
unto all the riches of the fulness of under-
standing, unto the knowledge of the mystery
of God the Father of Christ Jesus, 3 in whom
be all the treasures of wisdom and know-
ledge hid. 4But this I say, that no man
deceive you in loftiness of words. 5For
although I be absent in body, yet in spirit I
am with you : rejoicing, and seeing your
order, and the constancy of that your faith
which is in Christ. 6 Therefore as you have
received Jesus Christ our Lord, walk in him,
7 rooted and built in him, and confirmed in
the faith, as also you have learned, abounding
in 1dm in thanksgiving.

9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the
Godhead corporally : 10and you are in him
replenished, who is the head in all Princi-
pality and Power : ll in whom all you are
circumcised with circumcision not made by
hand in spoiling of the body of the flesh, in
the circumcision of Christ, 12 buried with
him in Baptism : in whom also you are risen
again by the faith of the operation of God,
who raised him up from the dead. I3And
you when you were dead in the offences and
the prepuce of your flesh, did ho quicken to-
gether with him: pardoning you all offences,
"wiping out the handwriting of decree that
was against us, which was contrary to us ;
and the same he hath taken out of the way,
fastening it to the cross: 16nnd spoiling
the Principalities and Potestatea, bath led
them confidently in open shew, triumphing
them in himself. 16 Let no man therefore
judge you in meat or in drink, or in part of a

decree as living in tlic world ? :1 Touch not.
taste not, handle not : '-- which things arc all
unto destruction by the very Use, according
to the precepts and doctrines of men ; ^ which
are indeed having u show of wisdom in
superstition and humility, and not to spare
the body, not in any honour to the filling
of the llesli.

Therefore if you be risen with Christ, seek
the things that are ahove: where Christ is
sitting on the right hand of God. 2Mind
the things that are above, not the things that
are upon the earth. 3 For you are dead : and
your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When
Christ shall appear, your life: then you also
shall appear with him in glory.

'Mortify therefore your members that are
upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness,
lust, evil concupiscence, and avarice, which
is the service of idols ; "for which things the
wrath of God cometii upon the children of
incredulity; 7in which you also walked
sometime, when vou lived in them. 8But
now lay you olso all away : anger, indignation,
malice, blasphemy, filthy talk out of your
mouth. B Lie not one to another: spoiling
yourselves of the old man with his acts,
"and doing on the new, him that is renewed
unto knowledge, according to the image of
him that created him; "where there is not
Gentile and Jew, circumcision and prepuce,
Barbarous and Scythian; bond and free:
but all, and in all Christ.

12 Tut ye on therefore a3 the elect of God,
holy, and beloved, the bowels of mercy,
benignity, humility, modest v, patience, '^sup-
porting one another: and pardoning one
another, if any have a quarrel against any
man; as also our Lord hath pardoned us:
so you also. MBut above all these things
have charity, which is the band of perfection:
"and let the peace of Christ exult in your
hearts, wherein also you are called in one
body: and be thankful. 1Gl.et the word of
Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wis-
dom : teaching and admonishing your own
selves, with psalms, hymns, and spiritual
canticles, in grace singing in your hearts to
God. ''All whatsoever you do in word or
in work, all things m the name of our Lord

the word of adulation, as you know : nor in
occasion of avarice, God is witness: 6nor
seeking glory of men, neither of you, nor of
others. 1 Whereas we might have been a
burden to you, as the Apostles of Christ :
but we became children in the midst of you,
as if a nurse should cherish her children :
8 so having a desire to you, we would gladly
deliver unto you not only the Gospel of God,
but also our own souls: because you are
become most dear unto us. 9For you are
mindful, brethren, of our labour and toil ;
day and night working, lest we should charge
any of you, we preached among you the
Gospel of God. luYou are -witnesses and
God, how holily and justly and without
blame, we have been to you that did believe ;
11 as you know in what manner we desiring
and comforting you, have adjured every one
of you (as a father his children) that you
would walk worthy of God, who hath called
you into his kingdom and glory.

12 Therefore we also give thanks to God
without intermission : because that when
you had received of us the word of the hear-
ing of God, you received it not as the word
of men, but (as it is indeed) the word of God,
who worketh in you that have believed.
13 For you, brethren, are become followers of
the churches of God that be in Jewry, in
Christ Jesus : for you also have suffered the
same things of your own lineage, as they
also of the Jews, u who both killed our Lord
Jesus, and the Prophets, and have persecuted
us, and please not God, and are adversaries
to all men, 13 prohibiting us to speak to the
Gentiles that they may be saved, to make up
their sins always ; for the wrath of God is
come upon them even to the end. ''' But we,
brethren, deprived of you for a short time,
in sight, not in heart : have hastened the more
abundantly to see your face with much
desire, 17 For we would have come to you, 1
Paul certes, once and again : but Satan hath
hindered us. ls For what is our hope, or joy,
or crown of glory ? Are not you before our
Lord Jesus Christ in his coming ? " For you
are our glory and joy.

For the which cause forbearing no longer,
it pleated us to remain at Athena, alone.

ttint you have a pood remembrance of us
always, desiring to see us, as we also you:
7 therefore we are comforted, brethren, in
you, in all our necessity and tribulation, by
your faith, "because now we live, if you stand
in our Lord. 9 For what thanksgiving can
we render to God for you, in all joy where-
with we rejoice for you before our God,
10 night and day more abundantly praying
that we may see your face, and may accom-
plish those thiug9 that want of your faith.

"And God himself and our Father, and
our Lord Jesus Christ direct our way to you.
'-'And our Lord multiply you, and make
your charity abound one to another, and
toward all men : aswe also in you, 13 to con-
firm your hearts without blame, in holiness,
before God and our Father, in the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ with all his Saints.
Amen.

For the rest therefore, brethren, we desire
and beseech you in our Lord Jesus, that as
you have received of us how you ought to
walk, and to please God, as also you do walk,
that you abound more. 2For you know what
precepts I have given to you by our Lord
Je9us. 3For this is the will of God, your
eauctification : that you abstain from for-
nication, * that every one may know to possess
his vessel in sanctification and honour : 5not
in the passion of lust, as also the Gentiles
that know not God, ''and that no man over-
go, nor circumvent his brother in business:
Because our Lord is revenger of all these
tilings, as we have foretold you. and have
testified. " For God hath not called us into
uncleanness : but into sanctification. B There-
fore he that despiseth these things, despiseth
not man but God, who also hath given his
holy Spirit in us.

': But concerning the charity of the fra-
ternity, we have no need to write to you:
for yourselves have learned of God to love one
another. "' Yea and you do it toward all the
brethren in all Macedonia, lint we desire
you, brethren, that you abound more : " and
that you employ your endeavour to be quiet,
and that you do your own business, and work
with your own hands, as we have commanded
you: '-and that vou walk honestly toward
iheni that are without : and need nothing of
any man's.

1 And wo will not have you ignorant,
brethren, concerning them that sleep, that
vou be not sorrowful, as also others thai
have no hope. " For if we believe that Jeau*
died and rose again, so also God them that
hare slept by Jesus will bring with him.

Lord, that we * huh live, which are remaining

in the advent of our Lord, shall not prevent
them that have slept. 16 For our Lord him-
self in commandment and in the voice of an
Archangel and in the trumpet of God will
descend from heaven: and tlie dead that are
in Christ, shall rise again first. ''"Then we
that live, that are left, withal shall be taken
up with them in the clouds to meet Christ,
into the air, and so always we shall be with
our Lord. ls Therefore comfort ye one an-
other in these words.

And of the times and moments, brethren,
you need not that we write to you. 2For
yourselves know perfectly that the day of
our Lord shall so come, as a thief in the
night. 3 For when they shall say, peace and
security: then shall sudden destruction come
upon them, as the pains to her that is with
child, and they shall not escape. 4But you,
brethren, are not in darkness : that the same
day may as a thief overtake you.

5 For all you are the children of light, and
children of the day : we are not of the night,
nor of darkness. G Therefore let us not sleep
as also others : but let us watch, and be sober.

7 For they that sleep, sleep in the night : and
they that be drunk, be drunk in the night.

8 But we that are of the day, are sober,
having on the breastplate of faith and charity,
and a helmet, the hope of salvation. 9For
God hath not appointed us unto wrath, but
unto the purchasing of salvation by our Lord
Jesus Christ, 10,who died for us : that whether
we watch or sleep, we may live together with
him. uFor the which cause comfort one
another: and edify one another, as also you
do.

'-And we beseech you, brethren, that you
will know them that labour among you, and
that govern you in our Lord, and admonish
you : 13 that you have them more abundantly
in charity for their work; have peace with
them. uAnd we beseech you, brethren, ad-
monish the unquiet, comfort the weak-
minded, bear up the weak, be patient to all.

man: but always that which is good pursue*

were at hand. 3 Let no man seduce you by
any means, for unless there come a revolt
first, and the man of sin be revealed, the
son of perdition, 4 which is an adversary and
is extolled above all that is called God, or
that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the
temple of God, shewing himself as though he
were God. * Remember you not, that when
I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now what letteth, you know; that he
may be revealed in his time. (7 For now the
mystery of iniquity worketh : only that he
which now holdeth, do hold, until he be
taken out of the way.) 8And then that
wicked one shall be revealed whom our Lord
Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth :
and shall destroy with the manifestation of
his advent, him, 9 whose coming is according
to the operation of Satan, in all power, and
lying signs and wonders, 10and in all seducing
of iniquity to them that perish, for that they
have not received the charity of the truth
that they might be saved. n Therefore God
will send them the operation of error, to be-
lieve lying : 12that all may be judged which
have not believed the truth, but have con-
sented to iniquity.

13 But we ought to give thanks to God
always for you, brethren beloved of God,
that he hath chosen you first-fruits unto
salvation, in sanctification of spirit and faith
of the truth : M into the which also he hath
called you by our Gospel, unto the purchasing
of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 There-
fore, brethren, stand : and hold the traditions
which you have learned, whether it be by
word, or by our epistle. 16And our Lord
Jesus Christ himself, and God and our father
which hath loved us, and hatli given eternal
consolation, and good hope in grace, ''exhort
your hearts, and confirm you in every good
work and word.

For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the
word of God may have course and be glo-
rified, as also with you: 2and that we may
be delivered from importunate and naughty
men; for all men have not faith. * But OUT,
Lord is faithful, who will confirm and keep '

you from evil. 4 And we hare confident t

you in our Lord, that the things which we
command, both you do, and will do. 5 And
our Lord direct your hearts in the charity of
God, and patience of Christ.

pattern unto you for to imitate us. lu For
also when we were with you, this we de-
nounced to you, that if any will not work,

working nothing, but curiously meddling.
12 And to them that be such we denounce,
and beseech them in our Lord Jesus Christ,
that working with silence, they eat their own
bread.

13 But you, brethren, faint not well-doing.

they speak, nor of what they affirm. sBut
we know that the Law is good, if a man use
it lawfully: 9 knowing this that the Law is
not made to the just man, but to the unjust,
and disobedient, to the impious and sinnei's,
to the wicked and contaminate, to killers of
fathers and killers of mothers, to murderers,
10 to fornicators, to liers with mankind, to
man-stealers, to liars, to perjured persons,
and what other thing soever is contrary to
sound doctrine, u which is according to the
Gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which
is committed to me.

a I give him thanks which hath strengthen-
ed me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he
hath esteemed me faithful, putting me in the
ministry; B who before was blasphemous and
a persecutor and contumelious ; but I ob-
tained the mercy of God, because I did it
being ignorant in incredulity. 14And the
grace of our Lord over-abounded with faith
and love, which is in Christ Jesus. 15A
faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation,
that Christ Jesus came into this world to
save sinners, of whom I am the chief. lsBut
therefore have I obtained mercy : that in mo
first of all Christ Jesus might shew all pa-
tience, to the information of them that shall
believe on him unto life everlasting. 1? And
to the king of the worlds, immortal, invisible,
only God, honour and glory for ever and
ever. Amen.

n This precept I commend to thee, O Timo-
thee: according to the prophecies going
before on thee, that thou war in them a good
warfare, 19 having faith and a good conscience,
which certain repelling, have made shipwreck
about the faith. ^Of whom is Hymeneeus
and Alexander : whom I have delivered to
Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

I desire therefore first of all things that
obsecrations, prayers, postulations, thanks-
givings bo made for all men, 2 for kings and
all that are in preeminence: that we may
lead a quiet andapeacable life in all piety and
chastity. 3Forthisis good and acceptable
before our Saviour God,4 who will all nun to
be saved, and to come to the knowledge of
the truth. s For there is one Cod, one also
mediator of ( lod and men, man Christ JetUS :

6 who gave himself a redemption for all,
whose testimony in due times is confirmed;
^wherein I am appointed a preacher and an
Apostle (I say the truth, I he not), doctor of
the Gentiles in faith and truth.

8I will, therefore, t lint men pray in every
placet Lifting up pure hands, without anger
and altercation. "In like manner women
also in comely attire: with demureness and
sobriety adorning themselves, not in plaited

hair, or gold, Or preriniM ut i.iu'h, or gorgeous

apparel, '"l>ni thai which beoometh women

ling piety l>y good works, " Lei a

woman learn in silence, with all subjection,

I. Timothy II. 12— IV. 5.

284

12 But to teach I permit not unto a woman,
nor to have dominion over the man : but to
be in silence. "For Adam was formed first:
then Eve. 14And Adam was not seduced:
but the woman being seduced, was in pre-
varication. ]i Vet she shall be saved by
generation of children: if they continue in
faith and loveand sauctilication with sobriety.

A faithful saying. If aman desire a Bishop's
office, he desireth a good work. 2It behovetli
therefore a Bishop to be irreprehensible, the
husband of one wife, sober, wise, comely,
chaste, a man of hospitality, a teacher, 3not
given to wine, no fighter, but modest, no
quarreler, not covetous, 4well ruling his own
house, having his children subject with all
chastity. 5But if a man know not to rule
his own house : how shall he have care of
the Church of God? 6Not a neophyte: lest,
puffed into pride, he fall into t lie judgment
of the Devil. 7 And he must have also good
testimony of them that are without: that he
fall not into reproach and the snare of the
Devil.

8 Deacons in like manner chaste, not double-
tongued, not. given to much wine, not fol-
lowers of filthy lucre: <J having the mystery
of faith in a pure conscience. '"And let
these also bo proved first: and so let them
minister, having no crime. "The women in
like manner chaste, not. detracting, sober,
faithful in all things. '-Let deacons be the
husbands of one wife : which rule well their
children, and their houses. I:i For they that
have ministered well, shall purchase to them-
selves a good degree, and much confidence in
the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

14 These things I write to thee, hoping that
I shall come to thee quickly. Ji 13 u t if,l
tarry long, that thou mnyest know how thou
OUghtest to converse in the house of God,
winch is the Church of the living God, the
>illar and ground of truth, '"And niani-
'estly it is a great sacrament of piety, which
was manifested in flesh, was justified in
spirit, appeared to Angels, hath been preached
to gentiles, is believed m the world, is as-
sumpted in glory.

And the Spirit manifestly saith that in the
last times certain shall depart from the faith.
attending to spirits of error, and doctrines of
devils, • speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having
their conscience seared, 3 forbidding to mam ,
to abstain from meats which God created to

6 These tilings proposing to the brethren,
thoushalt be a good minister of Christ. Jesus,
nourished in the words of the faith and
the good doctrine which thou hast attained
unto. 7 But foolish and old wives' fables
avoid : and exercise thyself to piety. 8 For
corporal exercise is profitable to little: but
piety is profitable to all things : having pro-
mise of the life that now is, and of that to
come. 9 A faithful saying and worthy of all
acceptation. 10 For to this purpose we labour
and are reviled, because we hope in the living
God which is the Saviour of all men, espe-
cially of the faithful. u Command these
things and teach.

u Let no man contemn thy youth : but be
an example of the faithful, in word, in con-
versation, in charity, in faith, in chastity.
13 Till I come, attend unto reading, exhorta-
tion, doctrine. 14 Neglect not the grace that
is in thee : which is given thee by prophecy,
with imposition of the hands of priesthood.
u These things do thou meditate, be in these
things : that thy profiting may be manifest
to all. 10 Attend to thyself, and to doctrine :
be earnest in them. For, this doing, thou
shalt save both thyself and them that hear
thee.

A senior rebuke not : but beseech as a
father: young men, as brethren: 2 old wo-
men, as mothers : young women, as sisters,
in all chastity.

•"Honour widows: which are widows in-
deed. 4But if any widow have children or
nephews : let her learn first to rule her own
house, and to render mutual duty to her
parents ; for this is acceptable before God.
5 But she that is a widow indeed and desolate :
let her hope in God, and continue in obsecra-
tions and prayers night and day. 6 For she
that, is in deliciousness, living is dead. 7 And
this command, that they be blameless. 8But
if any man have not care of his own, and
especially of his domestical, lie hath denied
the faith, and is worse than an infidel. 9 Let
a widow be chosen of no less than threescore
rears, which hath been t he wifeof one husband,
,u having testimony in good works, if she have
brought up her children, if the have received
to harbour, if she have washed the Saints'
feet, if she have ministered to them that
HulI'iT tribulation, if .she have followed every
good work. "Hut the younger widows
avoid. For when they shall be wanton in
( 'hrist.tliey will marry: * having damnation,
.Hie they li.ne male villi! their lirst fiiitli.

■ And withal idle also they lean to go a bout

from lioti-e to house : not only idle, but also

full of words ami curious, speaking things
whieh they ought not "I will therefore the

''The priests that rule -well, let them bo
esteemed worthyof double honour: especially
they that labour in the word and doetrine.
uFor the Scripture saith: Thou shall not
muzzle the mouth to the ox that treadeth out
thecom; and, Tin- workman it worthy of his
hire. ' 'Against a priest receive not accusa-
tion: but under two or three witnesses.
"Them that sin, reprove before all : that the
rest also may have fear.

21 1 testify before God and Christ Jesus,
and the elect Angels, that thou keep these
things without prejudice, doing nothing by
declining to the one part. '^Impose hands
on no man lightly, neither do thou communi-
cate with other men's sins. Keep thyself
ohaste. ° Drink not yet water: but use a
little wine for thy stomach, and thy often
infirmities. -4 Certain men's sins be manifest,
going before to judgment : and certain men
they follow. ^In like manner also good
deeds bo manifest, and they that are other-
wise, cannot be hid.

"Whosoever are servants under yoke, let
them count their masters worthy of all
honour: lest the name of our Lord and his
doctrine be blasphemed. -But they that
have faithful masters, let them not contemn
them because they are brethren, but serve
the rather, because they be faithful and be-
loved, which are partakers of the benefit.
These things teach and exhort.

3 If any man (each otherwise, and consent
not to the sound words of our Lord Jesus
Christ, and to that doctrine which is accord-
ing to piety : 4he is proud, knowing nothing,
but languishing! about questions and strife of
words: of which rise envies, contentions,
blasphemies, evil suspicions, (conflicts of
men corrupted in their mind, and that are
deprived oi the truth, that esteem gain to be
piety. 8 But piety with sufficiency is great
gain. "For we brought nothing into this
world: doubtless, neither run we take away
anything. NBut having food, and where-
with to he covered, with these we are con-
tent. 'For they that will he made rich, fall
into tentation and the snare of the devil, and
many desires unprofitable and hurtful, which
drown men into destruction and perdition.
10For the root of all evils is ooretousness i
which certain desiring have erred from the
faith, and have entangled themselves in many
sorrows.

11 But thou, O man of God, llee these
things: and pursue justice, piety, faith, cha-
rity, patience, mildness. "Fight the good

fight of faith: apprehend eternal life, where-
in thou art called, and hast confessed a good

Contend not in words, for it is profitable
for nothing, but for the subversion of them
that hear. 15 Carefully provide to present
thyself approved to God, a workman not to
be confounded, rightly handling the word of
truth. 16But profane and vain speeches
avoid : for they do much grow to impiety :
17 and their speech spreadeth as a canker:
of whom is Hymenseus and Philetus: 13who
have erred from the truth, saying that the
resurrection is done already, and have sub-
verted the faith of some.

"But the sure foundation of God standeth,

in a great house there are not only vessels of
gold and of silver, but also of wood and of
earth : and certain indeed unto honour, but
certain unto contumely. 21 If any man there-
fore shall cleanse himself from these, he shall
be a vessel unto honour, sanctified and pro-
fitable to our Lord, prepared to every good
work.

- But youthful desires flee : and pursue
justice, faith, charity, and peace with them
that invocate our Lord from a pure heart.
23 And foolish and unlearned questions avoid,
knowing that they engender brawls. 21But
the servant of our Lord must not wrangle :
but be mild toward all men, apt to teach,
patient, Bwith modesty admonishing them
that resist the truth : lest sometime God give
them Irepentance to know the truth: 26and
they recover themselves from the snares of
the devil, of whom they are held captive at
his will.

And this know thou, that in the last days
shall approach perilous times; - ami men
shall be lovers of themselves, covetous,
haughty, proud, blasphemous, not obedient
to their parents, unkind, wicked, 3 without
affection, without peace, accusers, incon-
tinent, unmerciful, without benignity, 4 trai-
tors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of
voluptuousness more than of Cod: 'Inning

of life everlasting, which he promised that

common faith, grace and peace from God the
father, and Christ Jesus our Saviour.

thou shouldest reform the things that are
wanting, and shouldest ordain priests by
cities, as I ulso appointed thee: "if any be
without crime, the husband of one wife,
having faithful children, not in the accusa-
tion of riot, or not obedient. 'For a Bishop
must be without crime, as the steward of

God: but in their works they deny, whereas
they be abominable and incredulous and to
every good work reprobate.

But do thou speak the things that become
Bound doctrine. -Old men that they be
sober, chaste, wise, sound in the faith, in lore,
in patience. 3 Old women in like manner, in
holy attire, not ill speakers, not given to
much wine: teaching well, 'that they may
teach the young women wisdom, to love
their husbands, to love their children, 6 wise,
chaste, sober, having a care of the house,
gentle, subject to their husbands, that the
word of God be not blasphemed. "Young
men in like manner exhort that they be sober.
'In all things shew thyself an example of

God, ill!/ God, hath anointed with the oil of
exultation above thy fellows. K'And, Thou
in the beginning, O Lord, didst found the
earth: and the works of thi/ hands are the
heavens. n They shall perish, but thou shalt
continue: and they shall all wax old as a
garment. v- And as a vesture shalt thou
change them, and they shall be changed: but
thou art the selfsame, and thy years shall
not fail. 13But to which of the Angels said
he at any time : Sit on my right hand, until
I make thine enemies the footstool of thy
feet? 14Are they not all, ministering spirits :
sent to minister for them which shall receive
the inheritance of salvation ?

Therefore more abundantly ought we to
observe those things which we have heard :
lest perhaps we run out. 2For if the word
that was spoken by Angels, became sure, and
all prevarication and disobedience hath re-
ceived a just retribution of reward : 3 how
shall we escape if we neglect so great salva-
tion ? which when it was begun to be declared
by our Lord, of them that heard w'as con-
firmed on us, 4 God withal testifying by
signs, and wonders, and divers miracles, and
distributions of the holy Ghost according to
Ins will. s For not to Angels hath God made
subject the world to come, whereof we speak.
6 But one hath testified in a certain place,
saying : What is man, that thou art mindful
of him : or the son of man, that thou visitest
him ? ' Thou didst minish him little less than
Angels: with glory and honour thou hast
crowned him, and constituted him over the
tcorks of thy hands. 8 All things hast thou
made subject under his feet. For in that ho
subjected all things to him, he left nothing
not subject to him. But now we see not as
yet all tilings subjected to him. °But him
that was a little lessened under the Angels,
we see Jesus, because of the passion of death,
crowned frith gl Or v and honour: that through
the grace of God he might taste death for
all. 10 For it became him for whom all things,
and by whom all things, that had brought
many children into glory, to consummate the
author of their salvation, by his passion.
11 For he that sanctifleth, and they that be
sanctified: all of one. For the which cause
he is not ashamed to call them brethren, •
ng, / will declare tin/ name to my breth-
ren: in the midst of the church will I praise
Hue. 13 And again, / will have affiance in him.
.And again, Behold, here am I, '<nd my
children, whom Qod hath given me. " There-
fore because 1 be children bai e communicated
with llcsh anil blood, himself also in like
manner hath been partaker of the same:
that by death he might destroi bim that had

his brethren; that he might become a mer-
ciful and faithful high Priest before
tlmt ho might repropitiate the sins of the
people. l8For in thai wherein himself suf-
fered and was tempted; he is able to help
them also that are tempted.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of tlm
heavenly vocation, consider the Apostle and
high priest of our confession, Jesus : 'who
is faithful to him that made him, as also
Moyses in all his house. 3 For, this man is
esteemed worthy of more ample glory above
Moyses, by so much as more ample glory
than the house, hath he that framed it.
every house is framed of some man ; but he
that created all things, is God. 'And Moy-
ses indeed was faithful in all his house as a
servant, for a testimony of those things
which were to be said: 'but Christ as the
Son in his own house : which house arc we,
if we keep firm the confidence and glory of
hope unto the end.

"Wherefore, as the holy Ghost saitli, To
dai/ if you shall hear his voice, s harden not
your hearts as in the exacerbation according
to the day of tentation in (he desert, 9where

some of >ou an evil heart Of incredulity, to de-
part from the living Qod; "but exhort your-
selves every day, whiles to day is named, that
none of you be obdurate with the fallacy of sin;

so if we keep the beginning of his substance
firm unto the end. J* While it is said, Today
\f you shall hear his voice, do not obdurate

foundation of the world being perfected.
4 For he said in a certain place of the seventh
day, thus : And God rested the seventh day
from all his works. 5 And again in this, If
they shall enter into my rest. 6 Because
then it remaineth that certain enter into it,
and they to whom first it was preached, did
not enter because of incredulity : 7 again he
limiteth a certain day : To day, in David
saying, after so long time, as is above said,
To day if you shall hear his voice : do not
obdurate your hearts. 8For if Jesus had.
given them rest : he would never speak of
another day afterward. 9Therefore there is
left a sabbatism for the people of God. 10 For
he that is entered into his rest, the same
also hath rested from his works, as God from
his.

"Let us hasten therefore to enter into that
rest : that no man fall into the same example
of incredulity. ° For the word of God is
lively and forcible, and more piercing than
any two-edged sword : and reaching unto the
division of the soul and the spirit, of the
joints also and the marrows, and a discerner
of the cogitations and intents of the heart.
13And there is no creature invisible in his
sight; but all things are naked and open to
his eyes, to whom our speech is.

"Having therefore a great high Priest that
hath entered the heavens, Jesus the son of
God, let us hold the confession. 15 For we
have not a high priest that cannot have com-
passion on our infirmities: but tempted in
all things by similitude, except sin. ™ Let us
go therefore with confidence to the throne of
grace: that we may obtain mercy, and find
grace in seasonable aid.

For every high Priest taken from among
men, is appointed for men in those things that
pertain to God : that he may oiler gifts and
sacrifices for sins: 2 that can have compassion
on them that be ignorant and do err; because
himself also is compassed with infirmity:'
3 and therefore lie ought, as for the people,
so also for himself to oiler for sins. ' Neither
doth any man take the honour to himself,

11 Of whom wc have great speech and
inexplicable to utter: because you are become
weak to hear. '- For whereas you ought lo
bo masters for your time, you need to be
taught again yourselves what be the elements
of the beginning of the words of God: and
you are become such as have need of milk,
and not of strong meat. ,3 For every one thut
is partaker of milk, is unskilful of the word
of justice: for he is a child. "But strong
meat is for the perfect, them that by custom
have their senses exercised to the discerning
of good and evil.

Wherefore intermitting the word of the
beginning of Christ, let us proceed to per-
fection, not again laying the foundation of
penance from dead works, and of faith
toward God, 2of the doctrine of baptisms,
and of imposition of hands, and of the
resurrection of the dead, and of eternal
judgment. 'And this shall we do, if God
will permit, 4 For it is impossible for them
that were once illuminated, have tasted
also- the heavenly gift, and were made par-
takers of the holy Ghost, 5 have moreover
tasted the good word of God, and the powers
of the world to come, 6and are fallen: to
be renewed again topenance,crucifyingagain
to themselves the son of God, and making
him a mockery. 1 For the earth drinking t lie
rain often coming upon it, and bringing forth
grass commodious for them by whom it is
tilled, reeeiveth blessing of God ; 8but bring-
ing forth thorns and briars, it is reprobate,
and very near a curse, whose end is, to be
burnt.

9Eut we confidently trust of you, my best
beloved, better things, mid nearer to salvation :
although we speak thus. ^For God is not
unjust, that he should forget your work and
love which you have shewed in his name,
which have ministered to the saints and do
minister. "And our desire is thai every
one of you shew forth the same carefulness
to the accomplishing of hope unto the end :
"that you become not slothful, but imitators
of them winch by faith and patience shall
inherit the promises. 13 For God promising

whom he might swear, he swnre bv himself,

so pat lent 1) enduring, he obtained the promise.
"For men swear by B greater than them-
selves: and the end of all their controversy,
for the confirmation, is an oath. ''" Wherein
God meaning more abundantly to shew to
the heirs of the promise the stability of his
counsel, he interposed an oath: '''that by
two things immoveable, whereby it is im-

anchor of the soul, sure and firm, and going
in into the inner parts of the veil, :o where
Jesus the precursor for us is entered, made a
high priest for ever according to the order of
Melchisedec.

For this Melchisedec, the king of Salem,
Priest of the God most high, who met
Abraham returning from the slaughter of the
kings, and blessed him: 2to whom also
Abraham divided tithes of all: first indeed
by interpretation, the king of justice: and
then also king of Salem, which is to say, king
of peace, 3 without father, without mother,
without genealogy, having neither beginning
of days nor end of life, but likened to the son
of God, continueth a priest for ever.

4 And behold how great this man is, to
whom also Abraham the Patriarch gave tithes
of the principal things. 5 And certes they of
the sons of Levi that take the [priesthood,
have commandment to take tithes of the
people according to the Law, that is to say,
of their brethren ; albeit themselves also
issued out of the loins of Abraham : 6 but he
whose generation is not numbered among
them, took tithes of Abraham, and blessed
him that had the promises. 'Put without all
contradiction, that which is less, is blessed
of the better. 8And here indeed, men that
die, receive tithes: but there he hath wit-
ness, that he liveth. <JAnd (that it may so
be said) by Abraham Levi also, which re-
ceived tithes, was tithed; "'for as yet he
was iii his father's loins, when Melchisedec
met him. "If then consummation was by
the Levitical priesthood (for under it the
people received the Law), what necessity was
there yet another priest to rise according to
the order of Melchisedec, and not to be culled
according to the order of Aaron ? u For the
priesthood being translated, it is necessary
that a translation of the Law also be made.
11 For he on whom these tilings be said, is of
another tribe, of the which, none attended on
the altar. " For it is manifest that our Lord
sprung of Juda : in the which tribe Moyses
■poke nothing of priests. "And jret it is
much more evident : if according to tho
similitude of Melchisedec there arise another
priest, "widen, was not made according to
the Law of the carnal commandment, but
according to the power <>f life indissoluble.

made priests, being many, because that by
death they were prohibited to continue:
''but t ) lis, for that he eontinueth forever,
bath an everlasting priesthood; ^ whereby
he is able to save also for ever going by
himself to God : always living to make inter-
cession for us.

:<;For it was seemly that we should havo
such a high priest, holy, innocent, unpolluted,
Beparated from sinners, and made higher
than 1 lie hea\ ens ; -7 which hath notnecessitj
daily (as the priests) first for his own sins to
offer hosts, then for t he peoples: for this he
did once, in offering himself. -H for the Law
appointeth priests them that have infirmity:
hut the word of the oath which is after the
Law, the fcJon for ever perfected..

But the sum concerning those things which
be said, is : We have su< h an high priest, who

is set on the right hand of the seat of
majesty in the heavens, -a minister of the
holies, and of the true tabernacle, which our
Lord pitched, and not man. :i for every high
priest is appointed to oiler gifts and hosts;
wherefore it is nece.»sar\ that he also have
something that he may offer: 'if then lie
were upon the earth, neither were he a priest:
whereas there were that did offer gifts ac-
cording to the Law, 6 that serve the exam pier
and shadow of hea\ enly t hings. As it was
answered Moyscs, when he finished the
tabernacle, Bee (quoth he) that thou make all
things according to the exampler which was
shewed thee in the mount.

6 But now he hnth obtained a better
ministry, by so much as he is mediator of a
better testament, which is established in

made old. And that which groweth ancient
and waxeth old, is nigh to utter decay.

The former also indeed had justifications of
service, and a secular sanctuary. 2For the
tabernacle was made, the first, wherein were,
the candlesticks, and the table, and the pro-
position of loaves, which is called Holy. 3But
after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is
called Sancta Sanctorum: •'having a golden
censer, and the ark of the testament covered
about on every part with gold, in the which
was a golden pot having Manna, and the rod
of Aaron that had blossomed, and the tables
of the testament, 5aud over it were the
Cherubins of glory overshadowing the pro-
pitiatory ; of which things it is not needful
to speak now particularly. 6But these things
being so ordered, in the first tabernacle
indeed the priests always entered, accom-
plishing offices of the sacrifices. 7 But in the
second, once a year the high priest only : not
without blood which he offereth for his own
and the people's ignorance : 8 the holy Ghost
signifying this, that the way of the holies
was not yet manifested, the former taber-
nacle as yet standing ; 9 which is a parable of
the time present : according to which are
offered gifts and hosts, which cannot con-
cerning the conscience make perfect him
that serveth, lu only in meats, and in drinks,
and divers baptisms, and justices of the flesh
laid on them until the time of correction.

"But Christ assisting an high Priest of
the good things to come, by a more ample
and more perfect tabernacle not made with
hand, that is, not of this creation: '-neither
by the blood of goats or of calves, but by his
own blood entered in once into the Holies,
eternal redemption being found. I3l<\>r it
the blood of goats and of oxen and the ashes
of an heifer being sprinkled, sanctifieth the
polluted to the cleansing of the flesh : 14 how
much more hath the blood of Christ, who by
the holy Ghost offered himself unspotted
unto God, cleansed our conscience from (lead
works, to serve the living GodP '■' And.
therefore he is the mediator of the new Tes-
tament: that death being B mean, unto the
redemption of these prevarications which
were under the former testament, they that
are called may receive the promise of eternal
inheritance. "' For where there is a testa-
ment: the death of the testator must of
necessity come between. Tor a testament
mfirmed in the dead: otherwise it is ret
of no value, whiles be thai tested, livetb,
"Whereupon neither was the first oertes
dedicated without blood. "For all the 00m-

cleansed with blood: and without shedding
of blood there is not remission.

23 It is necessary therefore that the exam-
piers of the ccelestials be cleansed with these :
but the celestials themselves with better
hosts than these. '-' For Jesus is not entered
into Holies made with hand, examplers of
the true: but into heaven itself, that he may
appear now to the countenance of God for
US. -'Nor that he should offer himself often,
as the high priest entereth into the Holies,
every year in the blood of others: M other-
wise he ought to have suffered often from the
beginning of the world : but now once in the
consummation of the worlds, to the destruc-
tion of sin, lie hath appeared by his own host.
'-'" And as it is appointed to men to die once,
and after this, the judgment : * so also Christ
was offered once to exhaust the sins of
many ; the second time he shall appear with-
out siu to them that expect him, unto salva-
tion.

For the law having a shadow of good
things to come, not the very image of the
things: every year with the sell-same hosts
which they offer incessantly, can never make
the comers thereto perfect: -otherwise they
should have ceased to be offered, because the
worshippers once cleansed should have no
conscience of sin any longer: •'but in them
there is made a commemoration of sin every
year; 4 for it is impossible I lint with the
blood of oxen and goats sins should be taken
away. 'Therefore coming into the world lie
saitn : Host ami oblation thou wouldesi
not: but a bodij thou hast fitted to me:

1,1 In the which will we are sanctified by the
oblation of the body of JesUS Christ once.
"And every priest indeed is ready daily
ministering, and often offering the same
hosts, which can never take away sins : "but
ii is man, offering one host for sins, for erer
sitleth on the right hand of God, ls hence-
forth t snooting, until Ins enemies be nut the
footstool of his feet. " For by one oblation

where there is remission of these, now there
is not an oblation for sins.

19 Having therefore, brethren, confidence in
the entering of the holies in the blood of
Christ : -"which he hath dedicated to us a
new and living way by the veil, that is, his
flesh,21 and a high priest over the house of
God, 2' let us approach with a true heart in
fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled
from evil conscience, and our body washed
with clean water, 3let us hold the confession
of our hope undeclining, (for he is faithful
that hath promised) ^and let us consider
one another unto the provocation of charity
and of good works : M not forsaking our
assembly as some are accustomed, but com-
forting, and so much the more as you see the
day approaching. ^For if we sin willingly
after the knowledge of the truth received,
now there is not left an host for sins, ^ but
a certain terrible expectation of judgment
and rage of fire, which shall consume the
adversaries. 23A man making the law of
Moyses frustrate : without any mercy dieth
under two or three witnesses; ^ how much
more think you, doth he deserve worse
punishments which hath trodden the son of
God under foot, and esteemed the blood of
the testament polluted, wherein he is sancti-
fied, and hath done contumely to the spirit
of grace? 30For we know him that said,
Revenge to me, I will repay. And again,
That our Lord will judge his people. 31 It
is horrible to fall into the hands of the living
God.

32 But call to mind the old days: wherein
being illuminated, you sustained a great fight
of passions ; ^and on the one part certes by
reproaches and tribulations made a spectacle :
and on the other part made companions of
them that conversed in such sort. ^For,
you botli had compassion on them that were
in bonds: and the spoil of your own goods
you took with joy, knowing that you have a
better and a permanent substance. MDo
not therefore lose your confidence, which
hath a great remuneration. -'"'For patience
i~ necessary for you: that doing the will of
God, you may receive the promise. •''For
yet a little and a very little while, he that is
to come, will come, and will not slack ; ^and
niy just liveth of faith; hut if he withdraw'
himself, he shall not please my soul. 3JBut

speaketh. * By faith Henoch was translated,
that he should not see death, and he was not
found; because God translated him: for
before his translation he had testimony that
he had pleased God. °13ut without faitli it
is impossible to please God. For he that
cometli to God, must believe that he is, and
is a rewarder to them that seek him.

7By faitli, ~Soe having received an answer
concerning those tilings which as yet were
not seen, fearing, framed the ark for the
saving of his house, by the which he con.
demned the world: and was instituted heir
of the justice which is by faith.

8 By 'faith, he that is called, Abraham,
obeyed to go forth into the place which he
was to receive for inheritance: and he went
forth, not knowing whither lie went. JBy
faith, he abode in the hind of promise, as in
a strange land, dwelling in cottages with
Isaac and Jacob the co-heirs of the same

firomise. 10For he expected the city t hut
lath foundations : whose artificer and maker
is God.

11 By faitli, Sara also herself being barren,
received virtue m conceiving of seed, yea
past the time of age: because she believed
that he was faithful which had promised.
'-' For the which cause even of one (and him
quite dead) there rose as the stars of heaven
in multitude, and as the sand that is by
the sea shore innumerable.

"According to faith died all these, not
having received the promises, but beholding
them afar oil', and saluting them, and con-
fessing that they are pilgrims and strangers
upon the earth: M for I hey that say these
things, do signify that they seek a country.
"And indeed Lithe] had been mindful of
the same from whence they came forth, they
had time verily to return: lnbut now they
desire a better, that is lo say, a heavenly.
Therefore God is not confounded to be
called their God; for he hath prepared thcin
a city.

lie was tempted: and his only-benotten did
he oiler who had received the promises:

that God is able to raise up even from the

:4By faith, Moyses being made great,
denied himself to be the son of Pharao's
daughter: ^ rather choosing to be afflicted
with the people of God, than to have the
pleasure of temporal sin, -6 esteeming the
reproach of Christ, greater riches than the
treasure of the ^Egyptians ; for he looked
unto the remuneration. ^ By faith, he left
jEgypt : not fearing the fierceness of the king ;
for him that is invisible he sustained as if he
had seen him. "3By faith, he celebrated the
Pasche, and the shedding of the blood : that
he which destroyed the first-born, might not
touch them. 2JBy faith they passed the
red sea as it were by the dryland: which
the .Egyptians assaying, were devoured.

30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down,
by the circuiting of seven days.

31 By faith, Bahab the harlot perished not
with the incredulous, receiving the spies with
peace.

M And what shall T yet say ? For the time
will fail me telling of Gredeon, Barac, Samp-
son. Jephte, David, Samuel, and the prophets :
Jlwno by faith overcame kingdoms, wrought
justice, obtained promises,stopped the mouths
of lions, 31 extinguished the force of lire,
repelled the edge of the sword, recovered of
their infirmity, were made strong in battle,
turned away the camp of foreigners : ^ wo-
men received of resurrection their dead ; and
others were racked, not accepting redemp-
tion, that they might find a better resurrec-
tion. -^And others had trial of mockeries
and stripes, moreover also of bands and
prisons : 3< they were stoned, they were hew-
ed, they were tempted, they died in the
slaughter of the sword, they went about in
sheepskins, in goatskins, needy, in distress,
afflicted: Mof whom the world was not
worthy ; wandering in deserts, in mountains
and dens, and in caves of the earth. 3' And
all these being approved by the testimony of
faith, received not the promise, •|u<Jod for us
providing some better thing, that they with-
out us should not be consummate.

And therefore wo also having so great a
cloud of witnesses put upon us: laying away
all weight and sin that rompasseth us, Im-
patience let us run to the light proi
onto us, -looking on the author of faith,
and the consummator Jesus, who, joy being
proposed unto him, sustained! the cross, con-

-Esteem it, my brethren, all joy, when you
shall fall into divers tcntations : "knowing
that the probation of \our faith worketh
patience. 'And let patience have a perfect
work: that you may be perfect and entire,
failing in nothing. "Bui if any of you lack
wisdom, lei him ask of God, who giveth to

all men abundantly, and upbraided) not : and
it shall be given him. '' Bui let him ask in
faith, nothing doubting; for he thai doubteth,

is like to a wave of the sea, which is moved
anil carried about by the wind; 'therefore
let not that man think that he shall receive
any thing of our Lord. s A man double of
mind is inconstant in all his ways.

9Uut let the humble brother glory, in his
exaltation: '"and the rich, in his humility,
because as the (lower of grass shall he pass i
11 lor t he sun rose with heal .and parched the
grass, and the llowcr of it fell away, and the

beauty of the shape thereof perished : so the
rich man also shall wither in his ways.
13 Blessed is the man that Buffereth tenta-

receive the crown of life, which God hath
promised to them that love him.

shadowing of alteration. ls Voluntarily hath
he begotten us by the word of truth, that we
may be some beginning of his creature.
19 You know my dearest brethren, And let
every man be swift to hear: but slow to
speak, and slow to anger. 20For the anger
of man worketh not the justice of God.

21 For the which thing casting away all
uncleanness and abundance of malice, in
meekness receive the engrafted word, which
is able to save your souls. ^But be doers of
the word, and not hearers only, deceiving
yourselves. ^For if a man be a hearer of
the word, and not a doer : he shall be com-
pared to a man beholding the countenance of
ins nativity in a glass. -4For he considered
himself, and went his way, and by and by for-
mat what an one he was. 25But he that hath
looked in the law of perfect liberty, and hath
remained in it, not mad i a forgetful hearer,
but a doer of the work : this man shall be
blessed in his deed. 23 And if any man think
himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue,
but seducing his heart : this man's religion is
valu. T'ligion clean and unspotted with
Ciodandthe Father, is this, to visit pupils
ami widows in then 'lobulation : and to keep
himself unspotted from f his worid.

~\U- brethren, Have not the faith of our
Lord Jesus Christ of glory in acception of
persons. 2For if there shall enter into your
assembly a man having a golden ring in

brother or Bister be naked, and lack daily
(nod : *and one of you say to them, Go in
peace, be warmed and filled: but you give
them not the things that are necessary for
the body : what shall it profit ? irSo faith
also, if it have not works, is dead in itself.
Is But some man saith. Thou hast faith, and
1 have works: shew me thy faith without
works: and 1 will shew thee by works my
faith. ''Thou believest that there is one
<iod. Thou doest well : the devils also be-
lieve and tremble. '-'" But wilt thou know, ()
vain man, that faith without works is idle?
a Abraham our father was he not justified
by works, offering Reaac his son upon the
altar? B8eesl thou hat faith did work with
his work-.: and by t io works t lie faith was
consummate? '--'And the scripture was ful-
filled, saving, Abraham believed Oodx and il
was reputed him la justice, and lie was

that by works a man is justified : anil not by
faitli only? '-'And in like manner also
Bahab the harlot, was not, sbe justified by
works, rer.', , ir.' ,ne messengers, and putting
t hen i fort h another way ? ■ For even as the
body without the spirit is dead; so also faith
without works is dead.

Be ye not many masters, my brethren,
knowing thai you receive the crenter judg-
ment. - For iii many things we offend all.

If any man offend not in word; this is a
perfect man : he is aide also with bridle to

turn about the whole body. 'And if we put
'oils into the mouths of liorses thai they may
obey us, we turn about all their body also.
'And behold, the BhipS, whereas they be
great, and arc driven o( strong winds: vet
are they turned about with a little stern
whither the violence of the director will.

8 So the tongue also is certes a little member,
and vauntelh gnat things. Behold how
iniieli fire what a great wood it kiniileth ?
'And the tongue is fire, a whole world of
iniquity. The tongue is set among our mem-
bers, which defileth the whole body, and m-
Qameth the wheel of our nativity, inflamed

and serpents ami of the rest is tamed and

things must not be so done, my brethren.
11 Doth the fountain give forth out of one
hole sweet and sour water? 12Can, my
brethren, the fig tree yield grapes : or the
vine, figs ? So neither can the salt water
yield sweet.

u Who is wise and hath knowledge among
you? Let him shew by good conversation
his working in mildness of wisdom. 14But
if you have bitter zeal, and there be conten-
tions in your hearts : glory not and be not
liars against the truth; 15for this is not
wisdom descending from above : but earthly,
sensual, devilish. 16For where zeal and con-
tention is : there is inconstancy, and every
perverse work. 17But the .wisdom that is
from above, first certes is chaste : then peace-
able, modest, suasible, consenting to the good,
full of mercy and good fruits, not judging,
without simulation. l8And the fruit of
justice, in peace is sowed, to them that make
peace.

From whence are wars and contentions
among you ? Are they not hereof ? of your
concupiscences which war in your members ?
2 You covet, and have not: you kill, and
envy, and cannot obtain : you contend and
war, and you have not, because you ask not.
' You ask, and receive not : because you ask
amiss : that you may consume it on your
concupiscences. 4 Adulterers, know you not
that the friendship of this world, is the enem y
of God? Whosoever therefore will be a
friend of this world, is made an enemy of
God. 'Ordoyou think that, the Scripture
saith in vain : To envy doth the spirit covet
which dtvelteth in yon ! 6 And giveth greater
grace. For the which cause it saith, Ood
retisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the
humble.

"Be subject therefore to God, but rosist

* You have made merry upon the earth : and
in riotousness you have nourished your hearts
in the clay of slaughter. 6 You have pre-
sented, and slain the just one : and he resisted
you not.

"Be patient therefore, brethren, until the

11 My dearest, I beseech you a9 strangers
and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from
carnal desires, which war against the soul,
12 having your conversation good among the
Gentiles: that in that wherein they misreport
of you as of malefactors, by the good works
considering you, they may glorify God in the
day of visitation. "Be subject therefore to
every human creature for God : whether it
be to king, as excelling : 14 or to rulers as sent
by him to the revenge of malefactors, but to
the praise of the good : 15for so is the will of
God, that doing well you may make the
ignorance of unwise men to be dumb: 16as

sorrows, suffering unjustly. 20 For what glory
is it, if sinning, and buffeted you suffer?
but if doing well, you sustain patiently, this
is thank before God. -'For unto this are
you called : because Christ also suffered for

himself to him that judged him unjustly.

But before all things, having mutual charity
continual among yourselves : because charity
covereth the multitude of sins. 9 Using
hospitality one toward another without
murmuring. 10 Every one as he hath received
grace, ministering the same one toward

grace of God. n If any man speak, as the
words of God : if any man minister, as of

Christ : to whom is glory and empire for ever

12 My dearest, think it not strange in the
fervour which is to you for a tentation, as
though some new thing happened to you:
13 but communicating with the passions of
Christ, be glad, that in the revelation also of
his glory you may be glad rejoicing. 14 If you
be reviled in the name of Christ, you shall
be blessed : because that which is of the
honour, glory, and virtue of God, and the
Spirit which is his, shall rest upon you. 15 But
let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a
thief, or a railer, or a coveter of other men's
things. 16But if as a Christian, let him not
be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this
name; l7 for the time is that judgment begin
of the house of God. And if first of us:
what shall be the end of them that believe
not the Gospel of God? HAnd if the just
man shall scarce be saved: where shall the
impious and sinner appear? 1,J Therefore
they also that suffer according to the will of
God, let them commend their souls to the
faithful Creator, in good deeds.

The seniors therefore that are among you,
I beseech, myself a fellow senior with liiem
and a witness of the passions of Christ, who
am also partaker of that glory which is to be
revealed in time to come: 'feed the Hock of
God which is among you, providing not by
constraint, but willingly, according to God:
neither for filthy lucre sake, but voluntarily :
'neither as overruling the Clergy, but made
examples of the Hock from the heart. 'And
when the prince of pastors shall appeal-,
you shall receive the incorruptible crown of
glory.

Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 12For the
which cause I will begin to admonish you
always of these things : and you indeed
knowing and being confirmed in the present
truth. 13But I think it meet as long as I am
in this tabernacle, to stir you tip by admoni-
tion : u being certain that the laying away of
my tabernacle is at baud, according as our
Lord Jesus Christ also signified to me.
lo And I 'will do my diligence, you to have
often after my decease also, that you may
keep a memory of these things.

16 For,not having followed unlearned fables,
have we made the power and presence of our
Lord Jesus Christ known to you : but made
beholders of his greatness. 17For, he re-
ceiving from God his father honour and
glory, this manner of voice coming down to
him from the magnifical glory, This is my
beloved son in whom I have pleased myself :
hear him. ls And this voice we heard brought
from heaven, when we were with him in the
holy mount. 19 And we have the prophetical
word more sure : which you do well attending
unto, as to a candle shining in a dark place,
until the day dawn, and the day star arise in
your hearts: ** understanding this first that
no prophecy of scripture is made by private
interpretation. -l For, not by man's will was
prophecy brought at any time : but the holy
men of God spake, inspired with the Holy
Ghost.

But there were also false prophets in the
people, as also in you there shall be lying
masters, which shall bring in sects of per-
dition, and deny him that hath bought them,
t lu; Lord: bringing upon themselves speedy
perdition. -And many shall follow their
riotousnesses, by whom the way of truth
shall be blasphemed; 3and in avarice shall
they with feigned words make merchandise
of >ou unto whom the judgment now long
lines eeaseth not: and their perdition slum-
bereth not. 4 For if God spared not Angels
sinning: but with the ropes of J loll being
drawn down into Hell delivered them to bo
tormented, that they should lie reserved unto
judgment: 5and he spared not the original
world, but kept the eight, (foe, the preachefc
of justice, bringing in the deluge upon the
world of the impious. ''And bringing the
cities of the Sodomites and of the Gomorrhe-
■ into ashes, he damned them with Mill-
ion, putting an example of them that
shall do impiously 1 ' and delivered just Lot,
oppressed by the injury and luxurious con*
ition of the abominable men; 'for in

not to bring in sects, blaspheming. " Where-
as Angels, being greater in strength and
power, bear not the execrable judgment
against them. ,J J3nt these men, as unreason-
able beasts, naturally tending to the snare
and into destruction, in those tilings which
they know not, blaspheming, shall perish in
their corruption, "receiving the reward of
injustice, esteeming lor a pleasure t he delights

in delicacies, m their feastings rioting with

cessant sin: alluring unstable souls, having
their (heart exercised with avarice, the
children of malediction : a leaving the righl
way they have erred, having followed the
way of Balaam of Bosor, which loved the
reward of iniquity, 1G but had a cheek of his
madness; the dumb beast under the yoke,
speaking with man's voice, prohibited the
foolishness of the prophet.

'< These are fountains without water, and
clouds, tossed with whirlwinds, to whom
the mist of darkness is reserved. H For,
speaking the proud things of vanity, they
allure in the desires of lleshly riotousness,
those that escape a little, which converse in
error: "promising them liberty, whereas
themselves are the slaves of corruption;
for wherewith a man is overcome, of that
lie is the slave also. *For if fleeing from
the coinquinations of the world in the
knowledge Of our Lord and Saviour Jesus

Christ, they again entangled with the same

unto them worse than the former. 21 For
it was better for them not to know the
way of justice, than after the knowledge, to
turn hack from that holy commandment
which was delivered to them. --' For, that
of the true proverb is chanced to them, The
dog returned to his vomit : and, The sow
washed iuto her wallowing in the mire.

This, lo, the second epistle I write to you,
my dearest, in which 1 stir up by admoni-
tion your sincere mind: -that you may he
mindful of those words which 1 told you
before from the holy Prophets, and of your

Apostles, of the precepts of our Lord and
Saviour. :l Knowing this first, that m the
last days shall come mockers in deceit,
walking according to their own concupis-
cences, * saying, Where is his promise or his
coming F 'For since the time that the
fathers slept, all tilings do so persevere from
the beginning of creature. For they are wil-
fully ignorant of this, that the heavens were

before, and the earth, out of water, and
through water, consisting by the Word of
God: 'by the which, that world then, being
overflowed with water, perished. 'But the
heavens which now are, and the earth, are
by the same word kept in store, reserved
to lire unto the day of judgment and of
the perdition of the impious men. s Hut
this one t liing be not ignorant of, my dearest,

that one day with our Lord is 8 -and

some do esteem it : but he doth patiently
for you, not willing that anv perish, but
that all return to penance. 10And the day
of our Lord shall come as a thief, in the
which the heavens shall pass with great
violence, but the elements shall be resolved
with heat, and the earth and the works
which are in it, shall be burnt.

11 Therefore whereas all these things are
to be dissolved : what manner of men ought
you to be in holy conversations and godli-
nesses, l; expecting and hasting unto the
coming of the day of our Lord, by which
the heavens burning shall be resolved, and
the elements shall melt with the heat of
fire? uJ3ut we expect new heavens and a
new 'earth, according to his promises, in
which justice inhabiteth.

11 For the which cause, my dearest, ex-
pecting these things, labour earnestly to
be found immaculate and unspotted to him
in peace: 15and the longanimity of our
Lord, do ye account salvation, as also our
most dear brother Paul according to the
wisdom given him hath written to you :
l;as also in all epistles, speaking in them
of these things, iu the which are certain
things hard to be understood, which the
unlearned and unstable deprave, as also
the rest of the Scriptures, to their own
perdition. '' You therefore brethren, fore-
knowing, take heed lest led aside by the
error of the unwise you fall away from
your own steadfastness ; ls but grow in grace,
and in knowledge of our Lord and saviour
Jesus Christ. To him be glory, both now
and unto the day of eternity. Amen.

■ \nl this is t lie annunciation wliiefa we
heard of him, and declare unto yon,
That God is light, and in him there is no
darkness. "If we shall say that we have
society with him, and walk ill darkness: we
lie, and do nol the truth. 7 But if We walk
in the light, as he also is in the light : we
have Bociety one toward another, and the
blood of Jesus Christ his son eleanseth us
from all sin. s If we shall say that we have
no sin, we seduce ourselves, and the truth
is not in us. 'If we confess our sins: he is
faithful and just, for to forgive US our sins,
and to cleanse us from all iniquity. 10lf
we shall say that we have not sinned: we
make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

My little children, these things T write to
you, that you sin not. But and if any man
shall sin, we have an advocate with 1 1)0
Father, Jesus Christ the just: -and he is the
propitiation lor our sins: and not for our's
only, but also for the whole world's. ■' And
in this we know that we have known him, if
we observe his commandments, 'lie that
Baith he knoweth him, and keepeth not his
commandments: is a liar, and the truth is
not in him: s but lie that Keepeth his word,
in him in very deed the charity of God is
perfected: in this we know that we be in
him. ''He that Baith he abideth in him:
ou lit even as he walked, himself also to
walk.

"?Wy dearest, T write not a new com-
mandment to you, but an old command-
ment which yon had from I lie beginning.
The old commandment is the word which
you have heard. B Again a new command-
ment write 1 to you, which thing is tru
in him and in you: because the darkness is
passed, and the true light now Bhineth. IJ He
that Baith he is in the linht, and liateth his
In-other: is in the darkness even until now.

'"He that loveth hie brother, abideth in the
light, and scandal is not in him. "But he

that liateth his brother: is in I he darkness,
and walketh in the darkness, and knoweth

not whither he goeth, because the darkness

hath blinded his eyes.

UI write unto you, little children, because
v our sins are forgiven \ou for Ins name. ls I

write unto you, fathers, because you have
known him which is from the beginning. 1
write unto you, young men, because you have
mm rcome the wicked one. " 1 write to you,

19 unde scimus, quia novissirna hora est. Ex nobis pro-

ls Little children, it is the last hour, and as
you have heard, that Antichrist cometh :
now there are become many antichrists:
whereby we know, that it is the last hour.
19 They went out from us : but they were not
of us ; for if they had been of us, they would
surely have remained with us i but that they
may be manifest that they are not all of us.
:o But you have the unction from the Holy
one, and know all things. a I have not
written to you as to them that know not the
truth, but as to them that know it : and that
no lie is of the truth. "Who is a liar, but
he which denieth that Jesus is not Christ ?
This is Antichrist, which denieth the Father
and the Son. 3 Every one that denieth the
Son, 'neither hath he the Father. He that
confesseth the Son, hath the Father also.
-' You, that which you have heard from the
beginning, let it abide in you. If that abide
in you which you have heard from the be-
ginning, you also shall abide in the Son and
the Father. -'And this is the promise which
he promised us, life everlasting.

'-'These things have I written to you con-
cerning them that seduce you. 2/'And you,
the unction which you have received from
him, let it abide in you. And you have no
need that any man teach you : but as his
unction teacheth you of all things, and it is
true, and it is no lie. And as it hath taught
you, abide in him. ^ And now little children
abide in him : that when he shall appear,
we may have confidence, and not be con-
founded of him in his coining. "If you know
thai he is just, know ye that every one also
which doeth justice, is born of him.

See what manner of charity the Father

hath given us, thai we should he named and

and he that loveth not his brother ; ub»
this is the nnniinciat ion, winch you iiuve
heard from the beginning, Tliat you love one
another. BNo1 us Cain, who wus of the
wicked, and killed his brother. And for
what cause killed he him? Because liia
works were wicked : but his brother's, just.

B Marvel not, brethren, if the world linfe
you. uWe know that we are translated from
death to life, because we love the brethren.
lie that loveth not, abideth in death. u Who-
soever bateth his brother: is B murderer.
And you know that no murderer hath life
everlasting abiding in himself. u In this we
have known the charity of God, because he
hath yielded his life for us: and we ought
to yield our lives for the brethren. i; lie
that shall have the substance of the world,
and shall see his brother have need, and shall
shut his bowels from him: how doth the
charily of God abide in him?

uMy little children, let ns not love in
word, nor in tongue, but in deed and truth ;
1 ' In this we Know that we are of the truth :
and in his sight we shall persuade our hearts.
'-" For if our heart do reprehend us : God is
greater than our heart, and knowetb all
things. '-'.My dearest, if our heart do not
reprehend us, we have confidence toward
God; --'and whatsoever we shall ask, we
shall receive of him : In cause we keep his
commandments, and do those things which
are pleasing before him. "'And this is his
commandment, thai we believe in the name
of his son Jesus Christ; and love one an-
other, as he hatli given commandment unto
us. "And he that keepeth his command-
ments, abideth in him, and he in him. And

in this we know that he abideth in us, by the
Spirit which he hath given us.

My dearest, believe not every spirit, but
prove the spirits if they be of God: because
many false prophets are gone out into the
world. - I n I his is the spirit of God known ;
every spirit that confesseth Jesua Christ to
have come in flesh, is of God: 'and every
spirit that dissohcth Jesus, is not of God:

Dei in nobis, quoniam Filium suum unigenitum misit

10 Deus in mundum, ut vivamus per eum. In hoc est
charitas : non quasi nos dilexerimus Deum, sed
quoniam ipse prior dilexit nos, et misit Filium suum
propitiationem pro peccatis nostris.

1 1 Charissimi, si sic Deus dilexit nos : et nos debemus

12 alterutrum diligere. Deum nemo vidit umquam. Si
diligamus invicem, Deus in nobis manet, et charitas

1 3 ejus in nobis perfecta est. In hoc cognoscimus quoniam

14 suo dedit nobis. Et nos vidimus, et testificamur quo-
niam Pater misit Filium suum Salvatorem mundi.

15 Quisquis confessus fuerit quoniam Jesus est Filius Dei,

because God is charity. 9In tins hath the
charity of God appeared in us, because God
hath sent his only-begotten son into the
world, that we may live by liira. 10 In this
is charity : not as though we have loved
him, but because he bath loved us, and sent
his son a propitiation for our sins.

11 My dearest, if God hath so loved us : we
also ought to love one another. 1J God no
man hath seen at any time. If we love one
another, God abideth in us, and his charity
in us is perfected. 13 In this we know that
we abide in him, and he in us : because he
of his Spirit hath given to us. 14And we
have seen, and do testify, that the Father
hath sent his Son the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the
Son of God, God abidetli in him, and he in
God. 16And we have known and have be-
lieved the charity, which God hath in us.
God is charity : and he that abideth in
charity, abideth in God, and God in him.
1? In this is charity perfected with us, that
we may have confidence in the day of judg-
ment : because as he is, we also are in the
world. 18 Fear is not in charity : but perfect,
charity casteth out fear, because fear hath
painfulness ; and he that feareth, is not per-
fect in charity. u Let us therefore love God,
because God first hath loved us. -"If any
man shall say, that I love God: and hateth
his brother, he is a liar. For he that lovetli
not his brother whom he seeth : God whom
he seeth not, how can lie love? -l And this

we have received commandment of the Fa-
ther. 5 And now I beseech thee Lady, not
as writing a new commandment to thee, but
that which we have had from the beginning,
that we love one another. 6And this is
charity, that we walk according to his com-
mandments. For this is the commandment,
that as yon have heard from the beginning,
you walk in the same: ' because many se-
ducers are gone out into the world, which
do not confess Jesus Christ to have come
into flesh : this is a seducer and an antichrist.

sLook to yourselves, that you lose not the
things which you have wrought : but that
you may receive a full reward. 9 Every one
that revolteth, and persisteth not in the doc-
trine of Christ : hath not God. He that
persisteth in the doctrine: the same hath
both the Father, and the Son. lu If any man
come to you, and bring not this doctrine:
receive him not into the house, nor say, God
save you, unto him. "For he that saith
unto him, God save you, communicateth
with his wicked works.

I would not by paper and ink: for I hope
tliat I shall be with you, ami speak mouth

Devil, made altercation for the body of
Moyses : he durst not infer judgment of
blasphemy, but said, Our Lord command
thee. luBut these, what things soever certes
they are ignorant of, they blaspheme : and
what things soever naturally, as dumb
beasts, they know, .in those they are cor-
rupted.

11 Woe unto them, which have gone in the
way of Cain: and with the error of Balaam,
have for reward poured out themselves, ami
have perished in the contradiction of Core.
12 These are in their banquets, spots, feasting
together without fear, feeding themselves,
clouds without water which are carried about
of winds, trees of autumn, unfruitful, twice
dead, plucked up by the roots, 13raging waves
of the sea, foaming out their own contusions,
wandering stars: to whom the storm of
darkness is reserved for ever. M And of these
prophesied Enoch, the seventh from Adam,
saying, Behold our Lord is come in his holy
thousands, 15 to do judgment against all, anil
to reprove all the impious, of all the works of
their impiety whereby they have done im-
piously, and of all the hard things which
impious sinners have spoken against him.
16 These are murmurers, full of complaints,
walking according to their own desires, and
their mouth speaketh pride, admiring persons
for gain sake.

17 But you, my dearest, be mindful of the
words which have been spoken before by the
Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, 18who
told you, that in the last time shall come
mockers, according to their own desires
walking in impieties. u These are they which
segregate themselves, sensual, having not tho
Spirit. -""But you, my dearest, building
yourselves upon our most holy faith, in the
holy Ghost praying, -'keep yourselves 111
the love of Uod, expecting the mercy of our
Lord Jesus Christ unto life everlasting.
-And these certes reprove being judged:

that thou art a miser, and miserable, and
poor, and blind, and naked. 1SI counsel thee
to buy of me gold fire-tried, that thou mayest

four beasts, full of eyes before and behind.
-And the first beast, like to a lion: and tho
Beoond beast, like to a calf: and the third

full of eyes: and the? had no rest day and

ever and ever, and cast their crowns before

our God, to receive glory and honour and
power: because thou hast created all things,
and for thy will they were and have been
created.

sat upon tht! throne, a book written within

1 saw a strong Angel, preaehing with a loud
voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and
to loose the seals thereof? :'And no man
was able, neither in heaven nor in earth, nor
under the earth, to open the book, nor look
OH it. 'And T wept much, because no man
was found worth; to open the book, nor to
see it. ''And one of the seniors said to me,
Weep not : behold the lion of the tribe of

the book, aud to looso tho seven seals
thereof.

were slain, having seven horns and seven
eyes: which are tho seven spirits of God,
sen! into all the earth. 'And he came, and
received the book out of the right hand of

had opened the book, the four beasts and the
four and twenty seniors fell before the Lamb,
having ever] one harps, and golden vials full
of odours, which are the prayers of saints :
''and they sang a new canticle, saying. Thou

and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and
glory, and benediction. u And every creature
that is in heaven, and upon the earth, and
under the earth, and that are in the sea, and
that are therein :! all did I hear saying, To
him that sitteth in the throne, and to the
Lamb, benediction and honour and glory and
power for ever and ever. 14And the four
beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty
seniors fell on their faces : and adored him
that liveth for ever and ever.

And I saw that the Lamb had opened one
of the seven seals, and I heard one of the
four beasts, saying, as it were the voice of
thunder, Come, and see. 2And I saw : And
behold a white horse, and he that sat upon
him had a bow, and there was a crown given
him, and he went forth conquering that he
might conquer.

3 And when he had opened the second seal,
I heard the second beast, saying, Come, and
see. 4And there went forth another horse,
red : and he that sat thereon, to him it was
given that he should take peace from the
earth, and that they should kill one another,
and a great sword was given to him.

3 And when he had opened the third seal, I
heard the third beast, saying, Come, and see.
And behold a black horse, and he that sat
upon him, had a balance in his hand. 6And
I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the
four beasts, saying : Two pounds of wheat
for a penny, and thrice two pounds of
barley lor a penny, and wine and oil hurt
thou not.

" And when he had opened the fourth seal,
I heard a voice of the fourth beast, saying,
Come, and see. 8And behold a pale horse:
and he that sate upon him, his name was
death, and hell followed him ; and power
wu* given to him over the lour parts of
thfl earth, to kill with sword, with famine,
and with death, and with beasts of the
earth.

9 And when he had opened (he fifth seal: I

saw under the altar the souls of them that

testimony which they had; "'mid they cried

"and heaven departed as a hook folded

moved out of their places. "And the kings
of the earth, and princes, and tribunes, and
the rich, and the strong, and every bondman,
and freeman, hid t hemselvea in the dens and
the rocks of mountains. K And they say to
the mountains and the rocks : Fall upon us,
and hide US from the face of him that sitteth
upon the throne, and from the wrath of the
Lamb: "because the great day of their
wrath is come, aud who shall be able to
stand ?

After these things I saw four Angeh
standing upon the four corners of the earth,
holding the four winds of the earth that they
should not blow upon the land, nor upon the
sea, nor on any tree. -And 1 saw another
Angel ascending from the rising of the sun,
having the sign <>l the living God: and he
cried with a loud voice to the four Angels, to
whom it was given to hurt the earth and the
sea. 'saying, Hurt not the earth and the sea,
nor the trees, till ue Bign the servants of our
God in their foreheads.

9 After these things I saw a great multitude
which no man could number, of all nations,
aud tribes, and peoples, and tongues : standing
before the throne, and in the sight of the

Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palms in

their hands. 10 And they cried with a loud
voice, saying, Salvation to our God which
Bitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb:

"and all the Angels stood in the circuit 01

8 Et cum aperuisset sigillum septimum, factum est

2 silentium in coelo, quasi media liora. Et vidi septem
An^elos stantes in conspectu Dei: et data? sunt illis

3 septem tubae. Et alius Angelus venit, et stetit ante
altare habens thuribulum aureum : et data sunt illi in-
censa multa, ut daret de orationibus sanctorum
omnium super altare aureum, quod est ante thronum

4 Dei. Et ascendit fumus incensorum de orationibus

5 sanctorum de manu Angeli coram Deo. Et accepit
angelus thuribulum, et implevit illud de igne altaris.
et misit in terram, et facta sunt tonitrua, et voces, et

6 fulgura, et tememotus magnus. Et septem Angeli,
qui habebant septem tubas, prseparaverunt se ut tuba
canerent.

7 Et primus Angelus tuba cecinit, et facta est grando,
et ignis, mista in sanguine, et missum est in terram, et
tertia pars terras combusta est, et tertia pars arborum
concremata est, et omne fcenum viride combustum est.

8 Et secundus Angelus tuba cecinit : et tamquam
mons magnus igne ardens missus est in mare, et facta

9 est tertia pars maris sanguis, et mortua est tertia pars
creatune eorum, quae habebant animas mari, et tertia
parsnavium interiit.

10 Et tertius Angelus tuba cecinit: et cecidit de coelo
Stella magna, ardens tamquam facula, et cecidit in

they serve him day and night in his temple :
and he that sittetli in the throne, shall dwell
over them: 16they shall no more hunger
nor thirst, neither shall the sun fall upon
them, nor any heat; 17 because the Lamb
which is in the midst of the throne, shall
rule them, and shall conduct them to the
living fountains of waters, and God will wipe
away all tears from their eyes.

And when he had opened the seventh seal,
there was made silence in heaven, as it were
half an hour. 2And I saw seven Angels
standing in the sight of God : and there
were given to them seven trumpets. 3And
another Angel came, and stood before the
altar, having a golden censer : and there
were given to him many incenses, that he
should give of the prayers of all saints upon
the altar of gold, which is before the throne
of God. 4And the smoke of the incenses of
the prayers of the saints ascended from the
hand of the Angel before God. 5And the
Angel took the censer, and filled it of the
fire of the altar, and cast it on the earth, and
there were made thunders and voices and
lightnings, and a great, earthquake. cAnd
the seven Angels which had the seven
trumpets, prepared themselves to sound with
the trumpet.

7 And the first Angel sounded with the
trumpet, and there was made hail and fire,
mingled in blood, and it. was cast on the
earth, and the third part of the earth was
burnt, and the third part of trees was burnt,
and all green grass was burnt.

8 And the second Angel sounded with the
trumpet : and as it were a great, mountain
burning with firet was cast into the sea, and
the third part of the sea was made blood:
9and the third part of those creatures died,
which had lives in the sea, and the third part
of the ships perished.

,0And the third Angel sounded with the
trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven,
burning as it were a torch, and it fill on the
third part of the floods, and on t he fountains

of waters :

id the

of tl

ie star is

called wormwood : and the third part of tho
wains crat made into wormwood: and many
men died of tho waters, because they were
made bitter.

And the fourth Angel Bounded with tho
crumpet, and the third pari of the sun waa
smitten, and the third pari of the moon, and
the third part of the etara, ao that the third
part of them wns darkened, and of the day
there ahined not the third part, and of the
night in like manner. "And 1 looked, and
heard the voice of one eagle flying through

the midal of heaven, Baying with a loud
roiee, Woe, woe, woe to tin- inhabited on tin?
earth : becauae of the real of the von
the three Angela which were to sound with
the trumpet.

And the fifth .A 1 tided with tho

rrumpet,and I taw ■ *i»r to bare fallen from
heaven upon the earth, and then waa given

to dim the key of the I'll of bottOl

of the pit there issued forth locusts into the
carl h ; and power m given to them, as the
scorpions ofthe earth have power: *and it
was commanded them thai they should not
hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green
thins, nor any tree : but only nun which
have not the sign of God in their forehi
6 And it was given unto them that t
should not kill them; hut that the? should
be tormented five months: and their tor-
ments an the torments of a scorpion when
be striketh a man. c And in those days men
shall seek for death, and shall not lind it :
and tiny shall desire to die, and death shall
ike from them.

" And the similitudes of the locusts, like to
horses prepared into battle : and upon their
heads as it were crowns like to gold: and
their faces as the faces of men. :i And they
had hair as the hair of women : and their
teeth were as of lions. 9And they had
habergeons as habergeons of iron, and t lie
voice of their wings as the voice of the
chariots of many horses running into battle;
'"ami they had tads like to scorpions, and
stings were in their tails: and their power
was to hint men fire months; "and they
had over them a king, the Angel of the
bottomless depth, whose name in Hebrew is
Abaddon, and in Greek ApoUyon: in Latin
having the name Extermtnans, ''-One woe
is gone, and behold two woes come yet after
these.

1:1 \nd the sixth Angel founded with the
trumpet: and I heard one voice from the
four boms of the golden altar, which is before
the eyes of God, "saying to the sixth Angel
which had the trumpet, Loose the four
Angels which are hound in the great river
Euphrates, ''And the four Angels were
loosed, who were prepared for BJB hour, and a
day, and a month, and B year: that they
might kill the third part of men. "'And the
number of the arm; of horsemen was twenty
thousand times ten thousand. And! heard
the number of them. "And so 1 saw the
horses in the vision : and they that sat upon
them, had habbenrionsof lire ami of hyacinth
and brimstone. And the heads of the hoi
were as it wire the heads of lions : and from
their mouth proccedeth lire, and smoke, and
brimstone.

|8 And by these three plagues was slain the
third part of men, of (he lire and of the
smoke and of the brimstone, which proceeded
from their mouth, "for the power of the
horses is in their mouth, and in their tails:
for, their tails he like to serpents, having
luads : and in these they hurt.

'"And the rest of men which were not
slain with these plagues, neither have done
penance from the works of their hands, not

to adore Devils and Idols of gold and silver

and brass and stone and wood, w hieh neither
can see, nor hear, nor walk, -'and have not
done penance from their murders, nor from
(heir sorceries, nor from their ioruieatiou,
nor lrom their thefts.

10 Et vidi alium Angelum fortem descendentera de

2 erat ut sol, et pedes ejus taraquam columnar ignis: et

5 Et angelus, quern vidi stantem super mare, et super

And I saw another Angel, strong, descend-
ing from heaven, clothed with a cloud, and
a rainbow on his head, and his face was as
the sun, and his feet as a pillar of fire ; 2and
he had in his hand a little book opened :
and he put his right foot upon the sea, and
his left upon the land: 3and he cried with
a loud voice, as when a lion roareth. And
when he had cried, the seven thunders spake
their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders
had spoken their voices, I was about to
write : and I heard a voice from heaven
saying to me : Sign the things which the
seven thunders have spoken: and write them
not.

5 And the Angel which I saw standing
upon the sea and upon the land, lifted up
his hand to heaven, 6 and he snare by him
that liveth for ever and ever, that created
heaven and those things which are in it:
and the earth, and those things which are
in it: and the sea, and those things which
are in it : That there shall be time no more :
7 but in the days of the voice of the seventh
Angel, when the trumpet shall begin to
sound, the mystery of God shall be consum-
mate, as he hath evangelized by his servants
the Prophets.

8 And I heard a voice from heaven again
speaking with me, and saying: Go, and take
the book that is opened, of the hand of tlie
Angel standing upon the sea and upon the
land. 9And I went to the Angel, saying
unto him, that he should give me the book.
And he said to me, Take the book, and
devour it: and it shall make thy belly to
be bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet
as it were honey. 10 And I took the book of
the hand of the Angel, and devoured it : and
it was in my mouth as it were hone}', sweet ;
and when I had devoured it, my belly was
made bitter: uand he said to mc, Thou must
again prophesy to Nations, and peoples, and
tongues, and many kings.

And there was given me a reed like unto a
rod : and it was said to me, Arise, and mea-
sure the temple of God, and the altar, and
them that adore in it ; ■ but the court which
is without the temple, cast forth, and mea-
sure not that: because it is given to the
Gentiles, and they shall tread under foot I ho
holy city two and forty months: -'and 1 wilt

give to my two witnesses, and they slinll
prophesy a thousand two hundred sixty days,
clot lied with sackcloths. ' these are tlio
two olive trees and the two candlesticks
that stand in the sight of the Lord of the
earth. 6And if any man will hurt them, lire
shall come forth OUt of their months, and

will hurt them, so must he be slain, r

great city, which is called spiritually Sodom
and .Kgypt, where their Lord also was
crucified 'And there shall of tribes, and

peoples, and tongues, and Gentiles, Bee their
bodies for three days and a halt: and they
shall not Buffer their bodies to be laid in
monuments. '"And the inhabitants of the
earth shall be glad upon them, and make
merry: and shall send gifts one to unother,
because these two prophets tormented them
that dwelt upon the earth. "And after
three days and a half, the spirit of life from
God entered into them. And they
upon their feet, and great fear fell upon them
that saw them. '-'And they heard a loud
voice from heaven saying to them. Come up
hither. And they went up into heaven in
n cloud : and their enemies saw them.
in that hour there was made a great earth-
quake: and the tenth part of the city fell:
and there were slain in the earthquake names
of men seven thousand: and the rest were
cast into a fear, and gave glory to the God of
liea ven.

11 The second woe is pone : and behold the
third woe will come quickly. ''And t he
seventh Angel Bounded with a trumpet i
and there were made loud voices in heaven,
saying, The kingdom of this world is made
our Lord's and his Christ's, and he shall
rcigu for ever and ever. Amen.

ir,And the four and twenty seniors which
pit on their seats in the Bight of ( iod, fell on
their faces, and adored God, '"saying: We
thank thee, Lord (iod omnipotent, which
art, and which wast, and which shalt come:
because thou hast received thy great power,
and hast reigned. '"And the Gentiles were
angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time
ofthedend, to be judged, and to render re-
ward to thy servants the prophets and saints,
and to (hem that fear thy name, little and
great, and to destroy them that have cor-
rupted the earth.

"And the temple of God was opened in
heaven: and the ark of his testament was
seen in his temple, and there were made
lightnings, and voices, and an earthquake,
and great hail.

And a great sign appeared in heaven : a
woman clothed with the sun, and the mo,. n
under lier feet, and on her head a crown of
twelve stars: -and being with child, she
cried also travailing, and is in aoguilll t<> he
delivered. 3 And there was seen another
sign in heaven, and behold a great red
dragon having seven heads, and ten horns;
and on his heads seven diadems, 'and his
tail drew the third part of the stars of
heaven, and east them to the earth, and
the dragon stood belore the woman which

was read) to be delivered: that when she
should he delivered, he might devour her
son. 'And the brought forth a man child,

to his throne, 6and the woman fled into the
wilderness where she had a place prepared of
God, that there they might feed her a thou-
sand two hundred sixty days.

'And there was made a great battle in
heaven, Michael and his Angels fought with
the dragon, and the dragon fought and his
Angels: sand they prevailed not, neither was
their place found any more in heaven. 9 And
that great dragon was cast forth, the old
serpent, which is called the Devil and Satan,
which sedueeth the whole world: and he
was cast into the earth, and his Angels were
thrown down with him. luAnd I heard a
great voice in heaven saying : Now is there
made salvation and force, and the kingdom
of our God, and the power of his Christ:
because the accuser of our brethren is cast
forth, who accused them before the sight of
our God day and night. uAnd they over-
came him by the blood of the Lamb, and by
the word of their testimony, and they loved
not their lives even unto death. B Therefore
rejoice,0 heavens, and you that dwell therein.
Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the
Devil is descended to you, having great
wrath, knowing that he hath a little time.

lsAnd after the dragon saw that he was
thrown into the earth, he persecuted the
woman which brought forth the man-child:
" and there were given to the woman two
wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into
the desert unto her place, where she is nour-
ished for a time and times, and half a time
from the face of the serpent. 15And the
serpent cast out of his mouth after the wo-
man, water as it were a (lood : that he might
make her to be carried away with the Hood.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the
earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up
the flood which the dragon casl out of his
mouth. I7 And the dragon was angry against
the woman: and went to make battle with
tiic rest of her seed, which keep the com-
mandments of God, and have the testimony
of Jesus Christ. 18And he stood upon the
sand of the sea.

And I saw a beast coming up from the sen,
having seven heads, and ten home, and upon
his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads
Dames of blasphemy. ' A ad t he beast « bioh 1
saw, was like to s leopard, and In* feel as of a

hear, and bis mouth as the mouth of B lion.

great power. 'And I saw one of Ins heads

those tliat dwell in heaven. ^And it was
given unto him to make battle with the
saints, and to overcome them. And power
was given him upon every tribe and people,
.•mil tongue, and nation: 8 and all that inhabit
the earth, adored it, whose names be not
written in the book of life of the Lamb,
which was slain from the beginning of the
world.

9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10lli' that sliu.ll lead into captivity, goeth into
captivity: lie that shall kill in the sword, he
must be killed with the sword: here is the
patience and the faith of saints.

11 And T saw another beast coming up from
the earth: and he had two horns, like to a
lamb, and he spake as a dragon. '-And all
the power of the former beast he did in his
sight: Mini In' made the earth and the in-
habitants therein, to adore the first beast,
whose wound of death was cured. "And
he did many signs, so that lie made also fire
to come down from heaven unto the earth
in the sight of men. M And he Beduoeth the
inhabitants on the earth through the signs
which were given him to do in the sight of
the beast, saying to them that dwell on the
earth, that they should make the image of
the beast winch bath the stroke of the sword,
and lived. '•' And it was given him to give
spirit to the image of the beast, and thai the
image of the beasl should speak: and should
make, that whosoever shall not adore the
image of the beasts be slain. 16And he shall
make all, little anil great, and rich, anil poor,
and freemen, and bondmen, to have a char-
acter in their right hand, or in their fore-
; '"and that no man may buy or sell,
but lie that hath the character, or the name
of the beast, or the number of his name.
uHere is wisdom. He that hath under*
standing, let him count the number of the
beast, Kor it is^ the number of a man: and
the number of him is six hundred sixty six.

And T looked, and behold a Lamb stood
upon mount Sion, and with him an hundred
forty-four thousand baring his name, and

the name of his Father written in their fore-
heads. -And I heard a voice from heaven,
as the Voice of many waters, and as the voice
of great thunder: and the voice which I
heard, as of harpers harping on their harps.

:l \nd they sung as it were a new song before
the seat, and before the four boasts, nnd the
seniors, and no man could say the song, but
those hundred forty-four thousand, that were
bough) from the earth. 4 These are they
which were not defiled with women: for
the} are virgins. These follow the Land)
whithersoever he. shall go. These w< re bought
from anion- men, I lie first fruils to God and
the Lamb: and in their mouth there was
found no lie; for they are without spot be-

8 Et alius Angelus secutus est dicens : Cecidit, cecidit
Babylon ilia magna : quae a vino iraj fornicationis suae

magna: Si quis adoraverit bestiam, et imaginem ejus,

the midst of heaven, Jiaving the eternal
Gospel, to evangelize unto them that sit
upon the earth, and upon every nation, and
tribe, and tongue, and people: "saying with
a loud voice, Fear our Lord, and give him
honour, because the hour of his judgment is
come : and adore ye him that made heaven
and earth, the sea and all things that are in
them, and the fountains of waters.

8 And another Angel followed, saying.
Fallen, fallen is that great Babylon, which of
the wine of the wrath of her fornication
made all nations to drink.

9 And the third Angel followed them
saying with a loud voice, If mny man adore
the beast and his image, and receive the
character in his forehead, or in his hand:
10 he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath
of God, which is mingled with pure wine in
the cup of his wrath ; and shall be tormented
with fire and brimstone in the sight of the
holy Aneels and before the sight of the
Lamb: n and the smoke of their torments
shall ascend for ever and ever : neither have
they rest day and night, which have adored
the beast, and his image, and if any man take
the character of his name. uHera is the
patience of saints, which keep the command-
ments of God and the faith of Jesus.

u And T heard a voice from heaven, saying
to me, Write, Blessed are the dead which
die in our Lord ; from henceforth now, saith
the Spirit, that they rest from their labours ;
for their works follow them.

"And I saw, and behold a white cloud :
and upon the cloud one sitting like to the
Son of man, having on his head a crown of
gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another Angel came forth from the
temple, crying with a loud voice to him that
sat upon the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and
reap, because the hour is conic to reap, for
the iiarvest of the earth is dry. '"And he
that sat upon the 'cloud, thrust his sickle
into t lie earth, and the earth was reaped.
'■"And another Angel came forth from the
temple which is in heaven, himself also
having a sharp sickle. IH And another Angel
came forth from the altar, which had power
over the tire; and he cried with a loud
voice to him that had the sharp sickle,
Og, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and
gather the clusters of the vineyard of tho
• 1: because the grapes thereof be ripe.
M And the Angel thrust his sharp sickle into
the earth, and gathered the vineyard of tho
earth, Bnd cast 11 into the great press of tho
wrath of God: "and the press was trodden

without the city, and blood came forth out
<il the press, up to Ihe horse bridles, for a
thou and lil hundred furlongs.

upon the sea of glass, having the harps of
God: 3and singing the song of Moyses t lie
servant of God, and the song of the Lamb,
Baying. Great and marvellous are thy works,
Lord God omnipotent: just and true are thy
ways, King of the worlds. 4 Who shall not
fear thee, O Lord, and magnify thy name?
because thou only art holy: because all na-
tions shall come, and adore in thy sight,
because thy judgments be manifest.

'And after these tilings T looked, and be-
hold the temple of tlie tabernacle of testi-
mony was opened in heaven: 6and there
issued forth the Beven Angels, having the
seven plagues, from the temple: revested
with clean and white stone, and girded about
the breasts with girdles of gold. 'And one
of the four beastB, gave to the seven Angels
seven vials of gold full of the wrath of the

God that liveth for ever and ever, B And the

temple was tilled with smoke at the majesty
ol ( ioii, and al his power : and no man could
enter into the temple, till the seven plagues
of the seven Angels were consummate.

And I heard a great voice out of the tem-
ple, saying to the seven Angels: Go, and
pour OUl t he seven vials of t he wrath 01 God
upon the earth. -And the tirst went, and
poured out his vial upon the earth ; and there
was n ode a cruel and very sore wound upon
nun that had the character of the beast:
and upon t hem that adored the image thereof.

•And the second Angel poured out his
vial upon the sea, and there was made blood
as it were of one dead : and every living
soul died in the sea.

'And the third poured out his vial upon
the rivers, and the fountains of waters : and

there was made blood. •''And I heard the
Angel of the waters, saying: Thou art just,
O Lord, which art, and which wast, the holy
one, because thou hast judged these tilings:
"because they have shed the blood of the
Saints and Prophets, and thou hast given
them Mood to drink; for they are worthy.
''And I heard another, saying : Yea, Lord

God omnipotent, true and just are thy judg-
ments.

s And the fourth Angel poured out his vial
upon the sun ; and|il was given unto him to

afflict men with beat and lire: -'and men
boiled with great heat, and blasphemed the
name of God having power over these
plagues, neither did they penance to give
him glory.

"' And the fifth Angel poured out his vial
upon the seal of the beast : and his kingdom
was made dark, and they together did cat
(heir tongues for pain: "and they blas-
phemed the God of heaven because of their
pains ami wounds, and did not penance from
their works.

13 And I saw from the mouth of the dragon,
and from the mouth of the beast, and from
the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean
spirits in manner of frogs. u For they are
the spirits of Devils working signs, and they
go forth to the kings of the whole earth to
gather them into battle at the great day of
the omnipotent God. 15 Behold I come as a
thief: Blessed is he that watcheth, and
keepeth his garments, that he walk not
naked, and they see his turpitude. 16 And he
shall gather them into a place which in
Hebrew is called Armagedon.

17 And the seventh Angel poured out his
vial upon the air, and there came forth a loud
voice out of the temple from the throne,
saying: It is done. ls And there were made
lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and a
great earthquake was made, such an one as
never hath been since men were upon the
earth, such an earthquake, so great. 19And
the great city was made into three parts :
and the cities of the Gentiles fell. And
Babylon the great came into memory before
God, to give her the cup of wine of the in-
dignation of his wrath. ^ And every Island
fled, and mountains were not found. 21 And
great hail like a talent came down from
heaven upon men: and men blasphemed
God for the plague of the hail : because it
was made exceeding great.

And there came one of the seven Angels
which had the seven vials, and spake with
me, saying, Come, I will shew thee the
damnation of the great harlot, which sitteth
upon many waters, 3 with whom the kings of
the earth have fornicated, and they which
inhabit the earth have been drunk of the
wine of her whoredom. 3 And he took me
away in spirit into the desert. And I saw a
woman sitting upon a scarlet-coloured beast,
full of names of blasphemy, having seven
heads, and ten horns. 'And the woman
wa* clothed round about with purple and
scarlet, and gilted with gold, and precious
stone, and pearls, having a golden cup in her
hand, full of the abomination and iillhiness
of her fornication. 6And in her forehead a
name written, Mystery: Babylon the great,
mother of the fornications and the abomina-
tions of the earth. ''And I saw the woman
drunken of the blood of the Saints, and of
the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And I
led when I had seen her, with great

admiration. 'And the Angel said to me.

Why dost thou marvel P 1 will till tliee
the mystery of the woman, and of the beast
that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads
and the ten horns.

•The beast wliieh thou sawest, was, and is

not, and shall come up out of the bottomless
depth, and go into destruction: and the
inhabitants on the earth (whose names are
not written is the book of life from tho

mukmg of the world) shall marvel, Hiring

woman sitteth, and they are seven kings.
111 Five are fallen, one is, and another is not
jet come : and when he shall come, he must
tarry a short time. "And the beast which
was, and is not : the same also is the eighth,
and is of the sewn, and goeth into destruc-
tion. 12And the ten horns which thou
rawest: are ten kings which have not yet
i' .-n id kingdom, but shall receive power as
kings one hour alter the beast. '•' These have
one counsel and force : and their power they
shall deliver to the beast. M These shall

lie -aid to me, The waters which thou saw est
where the harlot sitteth: are peoples, and
nations, and tongues. 16 And the ten horns
which thou sawest in the beast: these shall
hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate
and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and her
they shall hum with lire; l; for God hath
given into their hearts, to do that which
pleasethhim: that they give their kingdom
to the beast, till the words of God be con-
summate. '"And the woman which thou

saying, Go out from her, my people : that you

made rich, shall stand far from her for fear
of her torments, weeping and mourning,

which was clothed with silk, and purple, and

hour are so great riches made desolate : and
every governor, and every one that saileth

cried seeing the place of her burning, saying,
"What other is like to this great city? 1J And
they threw dust upon their heads, and cried
weeping and mourning, saying : Woe, woe,
that great city, in the which all were made
rich that had ships in the sea, of her prices:
because in one hour she is desolate.

Apostles and Prophets: because God hath
judged your judgment of her. -'And one

come, and his wife hath prepared herself.
"And it was given to her that she clothe
herself with silk glittering and white. For
the silk are the justifications of Saints.

marriage of the Lamb. And he said to me,
These words of God, be true. 10And I (ell

to me, See thou do not: I am thy f'cllow-

testimony ot Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

two were cast alive into the pool of fire
burning also with brimstone. 21 And the
rest were slain by the sword of him that
sitteth upon the horse, which proceedeth out
of his mouth : and all the birds were filled
with their flesh.

And I saw an Angel descending from hea-
ven, having the key of the bottomless depth,
and a great chain in his Lhand. 2 And he
apprehended the dragon the old serpent,
which is the Devil and Satan, and bound
him for a thousand years. 3And he threw
him into the depth, and shut him up, and
sealed over him, that lie seduce no more the
nations, till the thousand years be consum-
mate : and after these things he must be
loosed a little time.

4 And I saw seats 1 and they sat upon them,
and judgment was given them, and the souls
of the beheaded for the testimony of Jesus,
and for the word of God, and that adored
not the beast, nor his image, nor received
his character in their foreheads or in their
hands, and have lived and reigned with
Christ a thousand years. 5The rest of the
dead lived not, till the thousand years be
consummate. This is the first resurrection.
6Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the
first resurrection ; in these the second death
hath not power: but they shall be priests
of God and of Christ: and shall reign with
him a thousand years.

"And when the thousand years shall he
consummate, Satan shall be loosed out of
his prison, and shall go forth, and seduce the
nations that are upon the tour corners of tho
earth, Gog and Magog, and shall gather t hem
into battle, the number of whom is as tho
sand of the sea. 8 And they ascended upon
the breadth of the earth, and compassed the
camp of the Saints, and the beloved city.
' And there came down (ire from God out of
hca\ en, and devoured them : '" and the Devil
which seduced them, was cast into the pool
of fire and brimstone, where both the beast
and the false prophet ahull be tormented day
and night for ever and ever.

and heaven fled, and there waa no place found

little, standing in the tight of the throne,
and book* were opened i and another book

was opened, which is of life: and the dead
were judged of those things which were

written in the hooka according to their

works. "And the sen gave the dead that

And I saw n new heaven and anew earth :
for the lirst heaven, and the first earth was
(.'one, and the sea now is not. 2And I John
saw the holy city Jerusalem new descending
from heaven, prepared of God, as a bride
adorned for her husband. 'And I heard a
loud voice from the throne, saying: Behold
the tabernacle of God with men, and he
will dwell with them. And they shall be
his people: and lie God with them shall be
their God; 'and God shall wipe away all
tears from their eyes : and death shall be
no more: nor mourning, nor crying, neither
shall there be sorrow any more, which first
things are gone.

5 And he that sat in the throne, said :
Behold 1 make all things new. And he
said to me : Write, because these words be
most faithful and true. 'And he said to
me: It is done: I am Alpha and Omega:
the beginning and the end. To him that
thirstetl) I will give of the fountain of the
water of life, gratis. 7He that shall over-
come, shall possess these things: and I will
bo his God; and he shall bo my son. 8But
to the fearful, and incredulous, and exe-
crable, and murderers, and fornicators, and
sorcerers, and Idolaters, and all liars, their
part shall be in the pool burning with lire
and brimstone, which is the second death.

9 And there came one of the seven Angels
that had the vials full of the seven last
plagues, and spake with me, saying: Gome,
and I will show thee the bride, the wife of
the Lamb. 10And lie took mo up inspirit
unto a mountain groat and high : and he
shewed me the holy city Jerusalem, descend*
ing out of heaven from God, "having the
glory of God ; and the light thereof like to a
preoiOUS stone, as it were to the jasper stone,
even as crystal. '-'And it had a Hall great

the twelve gates: there are twelve pearls,
one to every one : and every gate was of one
several pearl : and the street of the city pure
gold, as it were transparent glass. ^And
temple I saw not therein ; for our Lord
the God omnipotent is the temple thereof,
and the Lamb. M And the city needeth not
sun nor moon, to shine in it ; for the glory of
God hath illuminated it, and the Lamb is
the lamp thereof. -4 And the Gentiles shall
walk in the light of it : and the kings of the
earth shall bring their glory and honour
into it. ^And the gates thereof shall not
be shut by day : for there shall be no night
there. 23 And they shall bring the glory and
honour of nations into it. 9 There shall not
enter into it any polluted thing, nor that
doeth abomination and maketh lie, but they
that are written in the book of life of the
Lamb.

And he shewed me a river of living water,
clear as crystal, proceeding from the seat of
God and of the Lamb. s In the midst of the
street thereof, and on both sides of the river,
the tree of life, yielding twelve fruits, ren-
dering his fruit every month, and the leaves
of the tree for the curing of the Gentiles.
3 And no curse shall be any more: and
the seat of God and of the Lamb shall
be in it, and his servants shall servo
him. 4And they shall see his face: and
his name in their foreheads. 5 And night shall
be no more: and they shall not need the light
of lamp, nor the light of the sun, because our
Lord God doth illuminate them, and they
shall reign for ever and ever. 6 And he said
to me, These words are most faithful and
true. And our Lord the God of the spirits
of the prophets, sent his Angel to shew his
servants those things which must be done
quickly. 'And behold I come quickly.

It hasbeen thought desirable in a matter of such solemn
importance as the attempted rectification of the New
Testament Scriptures, to adduce in every instance the
critical authority upon which every proposed alteration
rests. V\ hen the remarkable agreement in judgment of
the Editors whose recensions have been adopted as the
basis of this Critical English New Testament (although
they have arrived at their results by slightly different
principles), is observed, there is abundant ground for con-
fidence that the Greek Text to which we now happily have
access, really represents in a high degree of exact it ude the
veritable W ord of God. Second Edition. Octavo. Price 5s.

we tell them that there are here specimens of the Bible in
about two hundred and twenty-hve different languages

important disquisition on the nature of the language, the
history of the Translation, and the effects produced in a
Missionary point of view. The work is really, in the
highest sense of the word, a History of the Bible, its
spread, progress, and present condition. It is such a
history, illustrated in the most graphic and artistic man-

before us, displaying an amount of labour, research, and
skill, beside which all ot-her books and works of man
dwindle into utter insignificance." — Record.

THE MODERN

POLYGLOT BIBLE,

IN TWO VOLUMES, FOLIO.

The advantages offered by this Modern Polyglot Bible are neither few nor trifling. Unlike
the older Polyglots, it addresses itself primarily to the Interpretation of Scripture. It
gives under one simultaneous view the Hebrew Text, the two ancient indispensable
versions the Septuagint and the Vulgate, and a scries of the best European translations.

How few can obtain, and how very i'vw ean use the Complutcnsian, the Antwerp, the
Paris, or the London Polyglots. But this modern Polyglot is at once accessible, con-
venient, moderate in price, and of easy practical use. And how very mat. able to
avail themselves of its contents. The Hebrew can lie consulted by not a few ; the Greek
is familiar to most Biblical students: and the Latin and European versions are more or
less the acquirements of every household.

The Author of " Friends in Council" says, " Head the Bible in another tongue : and
you will perhaps End beauties in it you have not thoroughly appreciated for yean before."
And Bishop Coverdale says in his prologue, l> Sure I am, that there cometh more know-
ledge and understanding of the Scripture by their sundry translations, than by all the gloflf
of our sophistical doctors."

The Ni.u I E8TAMENT is presented on a precisely similar plan, with a Supplement
containing the Peschito Syriac Version.

Tables of the various readings of the Hebrew, the Septuagint, the New Testament
Greek, and the Syriac accompanv.

This work is handsomely printed in two volumes. Crown folio, and is issued ready-
bound in best morocco Roxburgh, price £8. 8s. Turkey morocco, £12 12s. Levant
morocco, richly tooled, £16 16s.
